Serpentine belt alignment 2007 Cr250 Volvo 5.7L

Drive belt is riding off the inside edge of the idler pulley about 1/8 inch.Any ideas? I think it's the wrong harmonic balancer .Rebuilt engine. I replaced idler, tensioner,alternator, water pump pulley.Looks like the lower pulley is in too far. I've pressed the ps pulley on as far as it goes, and tried it at other depths on the pump shaft.

I  cannot comment on your balancer and crank pully if it is different.

I had to break out the long straight edge and start lining up the pulleys. I found that the large bracket for the power steering needed to be shimmed with washers at the very bottom to get the the angle right. I found that the pully were more radially relative to each other than in or out (depth to the front of the engine) from the crank pulley.

After shimming the mounting bracket there is considerably less black rubber dust and zero squeaking.
