warning

This part is very hard to assemble. I got lucky by re-using some of my v0 extrusions that have a hole in that location I could use a follower to construct the stack and the push the m3x40 through the tensionsing arm and bearing stack in one. The last part attaching the tensioner to the side face of the front. Good luck.
