Lot's of things can cause the O2 sensor to trip. Replacing a sensor that's doing it's design parameter is counter productive. You need to find out why it's getting hot. Stuck thermostat? Stopped up radiator? Blown head gasket? The first step to track the problem down is to get a remote infrared thermometer. They are a little pistol shaped thing, often with an aiming laser. You can then point it around to see where the engine is getting hot.
