The only thing I can suggest is heat.
The Citroen shaft in the picture I put on here is similar in that the cap doesn't clear the yoke and needs to be pulled out. I have a vice grip with curved jaws and clamped it on the protruding cup and found that it could be rotated (just). Eventually it came out. I think heating the yoke might help at the same time rotating the cap rather than just pulling.
The Citroen one required serious hammering.
