Try www.z1enterprises.com and see if they can get this tool for you, my understanding this special tool would fit on the end of a 3/8" drive extension.

650ed wrote: If your fork cylinder top is round as shown in the pic, you can make a tool by attaching a rod to a large bolt (as a handle) and supergluing a rubber vacuum cap to the business end as shown. I sleeved the rod with a piece of clear tubing to protect the fork innards. Have someone jam the rod into the top of the fork cylinder while you use an impact wrench on the cylinder bolt. It should come out. Ed

Great idea! I had tried something similar but still couldn't stop the inner fork from spinning...yours might actually work.
