CA77 Shock

Attempting to disassemble a shock. I built a fixture to fit over the upper mount and grab the plastic cover - similar to what has been shown on this site. When pressing the shock it appeared the top of the plastic cover was being cut by something metallic underneath. Finally gave up and cut the plastic cover off to see what was happening. Apparently the cover extended almost to the shock shaft. Once apart there seems to no way to hold the shaft nor does there appear to be a nut to hold to loosen the upper mount. I have no idea how they put this together. I can push the other way and push the cylinder out the bottom. More than likely this shock was off a 1962 Dream - I also had a 65 for parts and it could be either but I think it was off the 62.
