So I have a 75' XS650B which has the type "C" tensioner. The cast cap that covers the tensioner and seals with an oring is cracked from over tightening. I have tried to repair it to no avail. They seem a bit hard to find and expensive. I have a 78' parts bike on the other side of the country which I think has a type "D" tensioner. Can I just bolt the newer style one on? I think there is a bit of an issue with possibly over tightening with this later tensioner? Thank you in advance.
