Can't say I've ever had trouble with a sending unit although i would recommend a socket rather than a wrench. Make sure your using a 27mm or 1 1/16" Those sending units usually have pretty smooth corners and a socket will bite better. If its a 4.0L you should have plenty of room for this up top. If you have to, apply some heat to it with a torch, but not too much, after all it is an oil system.
