The rear one is good should the belt ride ontop of the washer that is between the spacer and the fixed face

This is why I'm asking about the rear clutch. That's usually where excessive heat is made.
Have you taken the rear clutch off and squeezed the sheaves to see if the sliding face is sliding properly?
