Both of my tensioners feel fine so I’m just doing the Jerry Woods mod to both, replacing the guides and putting it back together.

I was more worried that there wasn’t enough travel as the posts I have read say to leave 2-2.5mm or 1/8” (3.18mm) travel, while I have 1.65mm after the mod.

I’m assuming once oil is in there it’s not going to compress far enough to hit the stop but maybe it does travel more than 1.65” during use.
