You probably need to retension your belts (or replace them if they're in
poor condition).

that?

Probably, since the tension is controlled by the position of the
alternator. There should be a tension adjuster on the alternator
bracket. If not, you can use a lever against the alternator housing
(carefully) to tension the belt while you tighten the bolt on the bracket.
