Oxygen Sensor removal
Unable to get my damn sensors off. Soaked them in PB, and they are locked down hardcore. Gonna have to torch them probably, but for those who have replaced them? What was your easiest way to change the passenger side?

back before I put my headers on I had to change the o2's and my driver side took less then a minute and the passenger side I had to cut it in half so I could put a socket on it and just use some muscle...

There's not much you can do besides use heat and pb blaster. You want to use a socket or closed end wrench on it so you have as much surface area on the nut as possible. Since they are being replaced, cut the wire so you can put that socket or wrench on it.
