After you compress the spring put an allen wrench in the top and hold it or have a friend hold it. Then use a wrench and pull hard as hell. What I did was i put in the allen wrench and stepped on it on the ground. Then took a boxed wrench and hit it with a hammer till it losened up and took it off. Pretty easy, just need some elbow greese. If you notice if you don't use an allen wrench the top of hte shock spins w/ the nut.
