Bank 2 is behind the driver and bank 1 is on the passenger side. I think that if you lock in any TDC and lock one side and then change the tensioner on that side you will be fine. Then rotate the engine 360 and lock again and then change that side. If you do one at a time you should be fine.
Do you know how to look at the cam shafts to tell if TDC of that bank. On the intake cams is a notch that is only on one side. On bank one (pass) you lock the cam behind the pass seat. On the transmission end the intake cam notch should be pointing away from the center of the engine towards the valve covers, this is TDC. Replace the tensioner at the bottom rear of bank one. Don't forget to pre oil the tensioner and use a new crush washer. I believe the torque is like 75 foot pounds. You can then do the crank to IMS at the side rear of bank two before you unlock the the engine.
Once both are oiled and replaced unlock the engine and turn the engine over 360 three times. This will bring you to TDC for bank two. Lock the crank TDC and check the intake cam on bank two behind the driver seat and the notch should be facing inwards away from the valve cover. You will need to loosen the alternator to be able to get a socket on the tensioner which is facing up under it.
