Even if both points were adjusted independently, is the idea that having an extra region where you can make adjustments requires you to lock the other one due to changes in how force is exerted on the vehicle, which can cause one or the other to nudge out of alignment? If everything is torqued to spec, shouldn't it be fine?
I don't know about the SPL, but I though the SPC came with all needed hardware.

There is an adjustment bolt on each of the lower links - one on the front lower link and one on the rear lower link. Download the service manual for a detailed description and alignment procedures.
Camber is set by adjusting the cam bolt on the front lower link (camber arm). Toe is set by adjusting the cam bolt on the rear lower link (that holds the spring). If you replace the front lower link (camber arm) then you will also replace the cam bolt with a lockout kit so the only adjustment is via the arm itself. There is no need to have two adjustment points.
The toe adjustment is accomplished with the cam bolt on the rear lower link. If the toe cannot be set within spec then you will replace this cam bolt with the SPC bolt which requires enlarging the hole at the inboard attachment of the lower link.
Hope this helps.
