AC tensioner makes noise

ok...asking for a friend of mine. He has one of those 03 GMC with the quadsteer. What happened was his AC belt broke. It was determined that the tensioner was the problem so he replaced it and the belt. Now at 2000rpm or more the thing makes a terrible noise like it's hitting something. Anyone have any thoughts on this??? :metal:

Re: AC tensioner makes noise

don't thing that's the problem since his ac works, i crawled under and watched when he put some rpm's to it and the tensioner looks like it moves and it touching the compressor pulley....kinda hard to explain.
