Default Tightening end links?

Hi guys,
I installed my BC racing coil overs last night and after some effort breaking loose some overtightened bolts (thanks alignment shop) got everything on.
My question though is what is the proper way to tighten the bolts on the end links. When I went to tighten them, the bolt itself would spin inside of the end link which I know it is supposed to do, but it prevents you from tightening them. I ended up grabbing the other side with vice grips to hold it steady but I was wondering how you guys did it? Thanks!

Stick a 17mm wrench right in the middle (there's a grove where it will fit just right). Tighten the nut with a 17mm socket while holding the wrench in place to stop it from free spinning
