Bearing maintenance

My front tire has been making a metal-on-metal noise. I am guessing it is a simple issue of the bearings needing to be cleaned and repacked. As I was looking at the torque specs, I noticed that a tool set is recommended.

Bearing puller: 09941-50111
and bearing installers: 09924-84521 & 09924-84510

On my old bike, I used a wood dowel to remove and a ruber mallet to install. Since the tools are notably expensive, I am hesitant to buy.

Any recommendations; buy or not to buy? Also, there are three types of thread lock listed, can't I just use a simple automotive threadlock?

p.s. what's a good 99000-31110: SUZUKI BOND "1215"
