Just did this on a N55 w/Oil Cooler, but I did not remove the fan.
It was a little tricky and I had to get creative. With 1/4 and 3/8 ratchets, socket extensions, 1/2 Breaker bar and "Jack Handle" Breaker bar.
Was able to use a Harbor Freight Pittsburgh 3/8 torque wrench with Neiko 10073A Torx Bits to torque everything to spec.
Routing the belt was pretty easy, starting with the crank pulley, left and right sides and leaving the alternator last, which mine slipped on without even touching the tensioner.
Tensioner wasn't bad easy to get from top.
Bottom pulley the torque wrench had like 1mm of space from the fan shroud to slip in, but it worked.
