You can't use the traditional 'star fangled nut' that is hammered into steel/alloy threadless steerers, instead you have to use an expanding bung for the top cap screw to thread into - what you show in the pics is part but not all of said bung. You will need a complete one to use the fork - DO NOT under any circumstances try and fit the type that you have to hammer in.
