Ok, using the picture below, you start by tightening down bolt #1 all the way so it wont budge. Bolt #2 is in stock location and needs to be loose. Bolt #2 is the one that moves with the alternator and moves as belt tightens or loosens. Now L brackets should be about 1" apart and you put bolt #3 in and start tightening. As you tighten #3, it pulls the alternator out towards the front of the car, also tightening the belt. Once you like how tight the belt is, tighten up bolt #2 and it will all stay there. Viola!
