I have no idea, I’ll have to take a look. I’ve seen the front mount when I did the generator belt. Seemed fine to me. Where is the torque tensioner?

It's a cable that attaches the engine mount to the swingarm. It keeps the engine from moving backward toward the trans during hard acceleration. The engine mounts are rubber so there is some flex there, the cable just keeps the flex under control. Might look like this....

I may have some used sheaves that may be usable. I'll look and see...
Dave you nailed this one right on the head! The bearing that was on my secondary was SHOT and was missing a good 1/8” of material. Attached are pics of my sheave and the used one from Dave. This used sheave paired with the correct woodruff got me back on the road! Shout out to everyone for your replies and help, especially Dave for hooking me up big time! This forum and the folks on it are great!

Glad it worked out. Dave wins the prize!!!!

On golf carts, clutches and belts should always be the first things to check.
