A crow's foot wrench and a long extension bar with a ratchet will do the same thing.

i used some aluminum stock that i found at Home Depot. cut it to length, bent it at a 90 and used a spare Delta nut that i bought as a template. i used epoxy to put another piece of aluminum of the same size to double the strength to hold the nut firmly. i've used this more than once.........never a problem with this open end wrench "opening up"
To remove the minispread faucet handle base, I am guessing I need to loosen the white plastic lock nut underneath first? I couldn’t loosen it with my bare hands. I also can’t get a socket on it since the bar is blocking it. Anyone have any advice how to loosen it?

A basin wrench or cut them off with a dremel.
Or from the top there’s a plastic c clip that rests into a groove that captures the metal escutcheon. Cut that clip or pry it out.
Wear safety glasses so you don’t put your eye out
