You are again, completely wrong on "not much room for error". I've had the belt way too tight, and way(way) too loose, with no issue other than pre-maturely stretching out the belt.
Something. is wrong. with your truck!
There isnt anything wrong except the design of the truck. I drive on tarmac alot so there is a fair bit of grip and tension on the belt under brakes. I can tell you my truck is the same as any other and the front tensioner pulley flexes up under brakes and it makes the belt run off. A brace wont help this problem either, because it wont stop the belt putting pressure on the pulley.
Drive on tarmac or other grippy surface long enough and use the brakes well and you will see what I am talking about.
