Thats right brider. The whole internals will freely turn within. If you remove the fork from the triple clamps, turn it upside down and have a friend compress it, the spring tension can be enough to help get it undone. An impact also works as with each impact it allows it to crack and undo a little more. Same way a rattle gun can undo a sprocket nut with a bike in neutral. In the past I used a battery operated impact with a good socket, and the fork upside down compressed. Came undone nice and easy.
