Listen to Ian, if you leave the pinchers tight on one side you negate the need for a wrench on the secured side, and by leaving a flatblade in as a spreader wedge to release the tension on the other side fork, all you have left to overcome is the torque applied to the end cap. Personal confession: I flunked every damn english class I ever took, so I am doing my best to communicate here. Oh, and put anti seize on every thing you will ever take apart in the future unless it calls for loctite and the next time it's easier.
