Help with passenger O2 sensor Okay so here's the scoop:
I got the driver's side o2 sensor off easily, and got the new one in right away and I'm okay with it.
However I just can't get the sensor on the passenger side. I'll start off by saying that it has stock headers because they do get in the way. I need advice on how to get some leverage to get the old sensor to move, because I can get the tools on the sensor but I can't get it to budge. Does anyone have any suggestions and if this doesn't make sense I apologize and I'll try to explain it better.
Once again I REALLY appreciate any help.

first spray it down with PB blaster and let it soak for a bit then use a ratchet and 02 sensor socket with a screw clamp tightened around the socket it so it doesnt expand and slip, and a piece of pipe for the ratchet...move what ever u must to gain room
