You can get at either tensioner from above. Either use a 3/8 drive breaker bar (need at least 2' for enough force to move tensioner) for the serpentine tensioner or use a 9/16 (I believe) crowfoot with some extensions, and electrical tape to hold the crowfoot on, to turn the SC tension bolt. You'll have to forcibly move some coolant hoses out of the way (not disconnecting them) to get to the serp tensioner.

It is much easier to get both from below.
