I just discovered that a good tool to fit a crown race on a 1 1/8 fork is an extension tube from a hoover, like this
slip it over the steerer with the race between it and the fork, turn upside down and hit into the floor. Doesn't damage the race at all and goes on perfectly.
do not blame me if you break your hoover, but it worked for me
