3.0 Diesel belt Replacement

Has anyone changed out the alternator and AC belts on a 3.0 diesel.
Thought I would do a bit of preventative maintenance and replace both .I took off the bottom engine cover and cant seem to find any adjusting mechanism for the AC belt ,first time I have seen this . Has anyone had any experience with this or the replacement of the main belt ? If so any information would come in handy.
Thanks .

Oh well job done , no adjuster on the AC belt just start the belt and turn the engine by hand to fit it on. Pull the adjuster back on the main belt and thread it on ,just do a drawing of the pulleys showing the belt location beforehand so as you know how it goes back on makes it a lot easier.
