Those two pulleys should never touch. Are they still touching with the new belts installed?

Yes they are. When the clutch is released the two touch

Either the belt is the wrong length or not routed correctly. I’ll find the length for you.

 

[Rivets]

Belt length should be 47.5”.

Ill double check its routed correctly

You will have to remove the belt to measure it.

ill get back to you on that. I did put it against the old one and it was a perfect match.

Check the pivot hole.
If it is flogged out oval it will allow the pulleys to move too far.
Also check the clutch tension spring.
They get weak and they also cut a groove in the anchor point which has the same effect.
