Removing strut from housing?

Recommended Posts

I'm removing the front strut from the housing - To remove the collar at the top I understand there is a "special" tool that I don't have.

Before I butcher it - Is there a recommend way to do this that wont destroy the collar ?

Thanks

I just use a plumbers wrench but make sure not to score the insert (the silver part)
