This is the current setup.
The top cap is a threaded cap that screws onto the extension tube, which is why I thought all top caps were threaded.
Whoa :shock: that is some set-up! There is a lot going on there. I am struggling to figure out what you have on your bike. If that lower collar with a pinch bolt is the Headset bearing adjuster, then I assume that you have Threaded Headset with a Threadless conversion. Your Top Cap seems to be an integral bolt type, which I assume is pulling on the Quill sliding "Nut".
I would start again with either a Threaded / Quill set-up if your Steerer is Threaded, or if your Steerer is actually Threadless, fit the simpler Threadless set-up that utilities a Top Cap like the example in my picture.
I'm probably not helping you a great deal with a solution, but perhaps THM can figure out what is going on with that unusual set-up.
