heat it with a torch and pound that bad boy out. Be careful not to burn ABS wire or anything non-metal in the area. If you can, pull the strut with fork attached and work with it on a vice.

You'll have to likely do some other disassembly like dropping the axle down out of the way which will mean disconnecting lower ball joint and tie rod. Maybe someone else has some ideas.

I don't remember for sure, but I think I was able to remove my coilovers with fork attached.
It was long time ago, so don't remember if I had to drop anything or it was something simple like pushing wheel hub down.

Hope you managed to take it out by now
