Doing a lower and air spring service on my solo air Revelations. Undone foot nuts, give them a hit with the rubber mallet, dropped the lowers off but the foot nut won't come out? Even with a good yank with pliers!

It's loose, moves up n down 2-3mm and side to side but won't actually come out of the lower, like it has a bolt attached on the inside.

I thought I might have snapped the air shaft but that looks fine, so I'm stumped, any ideas?

Scrap that, a bit of brute force and it's out!

Looks like a bit of crush washer had somehow ended up around the top of the bolt? Fortunately the air shaft threads are ok.
