ohhhh jeeze, i'm surprised you got it off over the cap. The first time i had my shocks rebuilt i cut the ring off so i could clean them up, same as you and i bought new retaining rings. When i sent the shocks out to get rebuilt, i asked them to install the new ring. Well, they didn't and i had a hell of a time getting it back on. nearly impossible but with some locking pliers, lots of sweat and swearing, i managed to get it back on over the bottom eyelet, but not without scratching up my nice refinished shocks.
I can't say that i've never forgotten to put the perch on before closing up a shock after rebuilding though. Nothing better than having to discharge it, pull the cap, put the perch on and charge it again.
