Dryer Drum Glides make drum stick??

I replaced the Drum Glides, however when I put it all back together, it seems like the drum is fairly tight or shall I say too tight. It turns, but takes effort.
If I leave the front bulkhead off and turn the drum, it is rotating freely.
There was adhesive tape that was under the original glides, which I left on and wonder if I should have removed it.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

make sure the tub is in place on the rear drum rollers. check belt to make sure it is wound correcty around the idler pulley.

Did you replace the felt underpad and the glide or just the glide?
