You can't tighten a serpentine belt. The auto tensioner keeps the proper tension on the belt. If the belt is loose, it has stretched and needs replacing or the tensioner spring is weak or broken and the tensioner needs replacing, or both. . . INCORRECT. . . On the earlier serpentine belts they were tightened much like the old V Belts. For the 1992-1995 Jeep Cherokee you need to loosen the front two "holding" bolts and the rear two or three "holding" bolts on the Power Steering pump. Then you loosen and or tighten the bolt that is under the powersteering pump, facing toward the outside of the motor. it is almost hidden on the L6 models. That is the way it is done on these vehicles.

Cherokee 4.0 Serpentine Belt TensionerThis engine does not have an tensioner for the serpentine belt. Only the 5.2 liter and 5.9 liter engines have a tensioner. The adjustment is at the power steering pump. Just loosen the power steering pump rear mounting bolts, pivot bolt and lock nut and then loosen the power steering pump adjusting bolt. Slip the belt on and tighten the adjusting bolt until you can push the belt in about one inch midway between the A/C and alternator pulleys. Then tighten the lock nut, pivot bolt and mounting bolts and that's it.
