to Clarify what you are saying.

1. Nut on back of alternator (it was tight as a drum)
2. Nut in front of alternator ( I just found this one and tightened it. This was loose) and also
3. Adjusting nut (on threaded rod)

I know I must sound stupid when y'all look down into your engine bay and wonder how in the hellz can I not see the alternator nuts. My engine bay is so different. This engine is tilted 13 degrees and "shoe horned" into the Unimog.

Thanks again. I found adjustments for my air compressor location (air brake assist) in the process of all this. That I'm happy about too. Now I can better line up the compresor pully with the drive pully on the engine.
