I'm working on one close to that. I got rid of the plastic parts. Take the metal completely out of it. I thought mine was ok but when I fired up the burner there was some stuff under the metal that started smoldering. By roxul insulation to replace what's in there.

Dang..I seen your post.it was already painted..I'm having a hard time taking it apart..screws keep stripping..

Are you gonna have to take your doors off to take the inside shell out?

 

[wvuarmyeng]

No there should be a plate on top remove it and the inner shell should pull out

 

[kunze7]

No. you will take the top out first then the middle comes out and then the bottom. If you have to use a chisel to break the heads off the screws or grind the heads off.

Hey guys did yall grind the ice maker off cause the bolt is in the inside where I can't reach...

Guess you could, but are you not removing the tub to replace the insulation?  I pulled the tub on mine and generally is recommended to replace the insulation.
