Question about Candy Dryers
Thumping sounds can be the rollers or skid plates on the front of the drum, the drum could be dented on the frame lip, it could have a split in the belt.

It's probably time for new drum support rollers. There are two rollers the drum rides on and their bearings can fail, which makes them noisy and also makes the drum wobbly while it turns. Replacing the rollers isn't difficult, and you can do it yourself if you feel comfortable working with hand tools and are patient.
Here's a good site with information on belt replacement and other repair tips, and a source for parts:

Take off the back panel of the dryer and look at the motor and belt turning the drum. There may be something caught on the drum and is pinned in place causing the noise. The motor could be loose on the platform and needs to be tightened. It is probably something physical and seen causing the noise.

The drum itself turns on an axle or sprocket. It may need to be oiled. The motor that turns it may be going bad. The windings and bearing could be bad. I assume it is drying O.K.

Check the tub rollers and front seal on the tub.
One of the rollers has probably flattened.
