Default Trick to removing inner tie-rod on '89 Toyota?

Pic is of the driver side inner tierod end on an '89 Toyota Cressida.
Got the dust boot pulled back and find that I can't get hold of the
areas that are meant for a wrench with adjustable wrenches. The jaws
are too wide and get impeded by the areas outslde the flat spots. Are
there special wrenches for this kind of thing?

Also, should I have to do anything but peel back the retainer between
the tied rod and the end of the steering rack? Should it then be free
to come loose?

Thanks.
