The top spring retainer is about 1.86" diameter. The body, and hence the inner diameter of the adjusting ring, is about 1.67" diameter. The adjuster will not pass over the top retainer.
Edit; I just went back and read your, MVH, posting. It is not the eye at the top of the damper which is the problem. It is the circular plate below that which acts as a restrainer for the top spring restrainer.
