Coilover spanner tool

Hooked
What is the best tool for adjusting the preload nut on King coilers? Is there a special tool for the timing rings, or do I just use a chisel?

I just ordered the EVO Long Arm Coilover kit for my JL, I think they are 2.5" coilovers if that makes a difference. I want to have something for initial setup & to keep in the jeep in case an adjustment needs to be made on the fly.

Caught the Bug
Not sure on King, but on Fox coilovers I've always used a 5/16" punch; fits the holes perfectly, and for some applications it gives you more room to work with over a spanner wrench (i.e. coil bucket or remote res hose getting in the way). If I need more leverage, I put a wrench or tube or something on the end of the punch.
