Without the actual tool, use a pipe wrench or very large pair of Channel Locks.
I prefer the pipe wrench. |

+1 on the VERY LARGE pipe wrench.
Some come easy and some come VERY hard. I'd avoid a chisel, unless you are going with the monotube bilsteins and have to replace the cap anyway. Good luck. |
