The pullys are probably out of line.
Put a strait edge across the altternator pulley and see if it lines up with the other pulleys.

iirc the durango pulley has 6 ribs versus the XJ 5. if you dont change pulleys leave the one closest to front open and use back 5.

I swapped the pulleys on mine. I didn't think the ribs were lined up when I checked it before I swapped it. It was almost as if the 6 rib pulley sat right in the middle of the alignment.
