Bill:
I have done several tensioner jobs, and I read max's suggested procedure (back when he posted it). I see no reason it shouldn't work. However, I don't like to take anything apart I don't have to, and especially bearing caps. And you miss the chance to setr the timing (and the chance to screw it up, I suppose!). The tools aren't that expensive, and you could make them for less. So, I guess its up to what you think is less trouble!
