I've always used my big pair of channel locks, a drop of loctite, and my air chisel to peen over the retaining collar. The rack that the steering rod screws into is stationary and I have never found a need to put a pipe wrench on it but you are right in that there are no flats on that inner joint and you need to get ahold of it with something like a big pair of pliers or a pipe wrench.
