How can they be rearranged? The connector lead terminates above the bell housing and the O2 wire is just long enough to reach it. There didn't seem to be enough wiring to move anything around. From what I remember the driver side was pretty easy, but the passenger side was a pain. I had to reach above the bell housing, finagle the connector around and snap it together with one hand. I was sooo happy when I felt and heard that click!
I looked for extensions when I replaced my O2's but couldn't find any.

Update:
I went with the Lucky8 sensors (they were indeed the most cost effective!), and they arrived a few days early. I decided to suit up and tackle the job yesterday. Unhooking/disconnecting/reconnecting the connectors proved to be as big of a pain as I anticipated, and I recommend laying across the engine bay if you can in order to help get your hands behind the engine.
New sensors are in, engine codes are gone, truck is running like a champ! Big thanks to everyone here for the advice.

"I tried to make sure there was as much slack as possible, simple as that."
Gotcha. I thought this may have been one of those Homer Simpson (Doh!) moments where there was an easier fix than I could figure out. :-)
