Better to ask than bust it up.

You still don't need to remove the cart/base valve to remove the seals. Pulling the dust seal down, removing the circlip, using some heat and then slide hammering them apart will still split the upper and lower but the cart will remain fixed into the lower leg.

Rattle gun is an impact. As stated, be careful with the alloys. A quality 6 point socket preferably with the lead in ground off will give you the best contact.
