Default How to tighten front axle spacers, without 4x4?

If I had 4x4 my front axle wouldn't spin when i had one wheel on the ground...however, I don't, any suggestions?

I stuck a long punch in a rotor vent. When I tightened, the punch caught on the caliper and prevented the hub from spinning. That was easier then making my wife hold the brakes

Thanks! My screwdriver hates you, but my new spacers love you!
