I agree 100% with this, I think leaving the RH (passenger) rockers in at all during this procedure is risky, and getting them out now is also going to be tricky.
I used a "cap" that bolts over the chain so I can't slip up. One good thing about having the right (and I know they cost $$$) tools is that they not only make the job faster, but safer, IMO.
