Well... These rollers were in pretty bad shape. Very worn.
When I removed the variator, I made sure to keep it intact so I could inspect it. Sorry I didn't get any pics. Anyway, some of the rollers were not oriented where they should have been. The edge of the plastic was chewed up and the round face had big flat spots.
I'm guessing that when then belt broke it allowed the worn rollers to get beat up. Then when the prior owner put the new belt on he only removed the outer plate and perhaps was able to get the nut started and pressed the outer plate on with the nut.
Or, when I take a longer ride it's still all screwed up and I'll have to fix it again.
Only time will tell!
Either way, I'm going to install new rollers or sliders.
Thanks to both of you for your replies. I really do appreciate all input.
Bill
