What am I missing here? I see two gates. One open one closed. am I having a flash back? Is this a glitch in the matrix?

Rockauto. Mopar tensioner and idler and a Gates belt. I think they were the cheapest even with shipping.

Replaced all 4 lower control arms. Didn't even remove the wheels on the front, but had to on the rear:

I have a 45 - 1 hour commute also, and leave at 4am. It was pretty chilly for sure.
