New to the sc thing, idk if it did this before or not I never drove the truck but I just installed a pro charger, is the idler bad? Or to soft of a spring? Belt to short? Idk never seen that before..

I have never heard one make that clicking sound. May just be me but it seems to be bouncing off the anti rotation pin. Can you apply pressure and it bottoms out with ease? If so you might need a shorter belt..

I was thinking that aswell, im acutely going to put a larger pulley on the sc cause this came with a small 3.2, bigger pulley should tighten up the belt, if that don't change things ill just try replacing it.
