The alternator belt can be changed from the top, the ps belt is best done from the bottom with the tire removed.
The alternator should have an adjusting bolt and the ps has an adjusting bracket. You loosen the bolts for the alternator and ps pump then use the adjusting bolts to tighten the new belts.

i would start by testing the alternator and replace if needed

If the vehicle is stalling when coming to a stop or slowing, look at your throttle position sensor on the throttle body. it is small, almost a box with 2 phillips head screws(not the sensor with hex head bolts, right behind it). If it is grey in color, change it.
