If you hold the center rod with a visegrip you can un screw it,put the visegrip at top so you don't mess up the rod.It will be hard getting it back together because you have to squeeze it together to screw it back on .

Don't put the vise grip where that picture shows or you will have a leaking seal in the shock.
