Default How do I access the drivers front O2 sensor?

Happy Sunday Morning!
I am working on removing all my O2 sensors and I have gotten all but the drivers front out. Does anyone have any ideas on how to reach it? Thanks

are you talking about the sensor or the plug?

the sensor is relatively easy to get to. just crawl under the Rover on the driver's side, find the sensor and unthread it with the proper tools.

the plug can be a little tricky to get to, but nothing another pair of hands and a long, standard screwdriver can't make easy work of.

i am talking about the sensor. I tried getting onto it with an offset o2 sensor tool and a breaker bar but the breaker bar wouldn’t fit. And I don’t have a 7/8 wrench to put on it so i didn’t have much acces to it.

You can get to it from the top with several extensions connected together, plus a u-joint. If you don't have enough extensions in your toolbox, Harbor Freight sells a set for just a few bucks.

thanks I have all the tools but the sock that fits on top of the sensor just opens up and I can’t get enough torque on it. The slot for the wires is too big. I already have to take it to the exhaust shop I was just hoping to save a little cash. My dad and I are taking it in tomorrow morning so thanks for all the help
