Default SPC Camber adjustment tool

I've got the IS300 Front SPC ball joints installed on my 06 IS250 RWD, just wondering if there is a tool out there that can easily, adjust loosen the nut on the top of the ball joint to adjust camber while everything is installed. One of the alignment shops I went too had to remove the lower arm in order to get to the nut to loosen and adjust.. What have you guys experienced or used to loosen and tighten that nut to adjust camber.

Ideally you'll need to have the shop loosen the top nut BEFORE the alignment equipment is attached. Then set the alignment as desired and mark the camber plate with a Sharpie. Then torque to the recommended 120 ft lbs. This is difficult to do...yes; so it might just require the wheel to be removed to attain the proper torque.
