I need to change both of them, I searched the board and I wasn't successful, so here is my question. What level of difficulty are we talking about? Anyone have a DIY walkthrough of the operation. I am mostly concerned about the tension on the belts. Is that something to be overly worried about? Thanks for your input and answers!

it's only a little tough, the main one that drives the ac and alternator is very easy, the power steering is not so easy. i would say look up for a FSM and download it.

I have the FSM, it doesn't have a section on a step by step, only how to check them for wear

n/m I kinda found the solution

What about the deflection/tension part, how do I test for those?

Get a Haynes manual, it will tell you all you need to know.

on the tensioner counter clockwise tightens and clockwise loosens correct?

If you're referring to the A/C/ALT---------> ..................

Make sure you loosen the pulley nut.
