Default Serpentine & AC belts

Ok guys, I should know this but never had to do it yet. Getting ready for a road trip to Michigan from here in Texas. Doing the Woodward Dream Cruise along with other side tours. I've never changed the serpentine & AC belts on my 02 yet. And since I've got 101k on it its way overdue. My question is since it has two separate belts does it share the same tensioner or is there a separate one for the AC? Never really paid much attention to that little detail. Thanks.

There are two separate tensioners, one for the serpentine and another for the A/C. A good replacement belt is Goodyear gatorbacks, P/N: 4060802
(serpentine) and P/N: 4040420 (A/C) These are for my 2003. I'm not sure if the P/N's differ for other model years.

The Goodyear belts are very good replacements.
