Default o2 sensors ?

Hi guy's. I've got some questions about what brand of o2 sensor to use. I've got a 04 Ram 1500 2wd standard cab 4.7. Have any of you guy's replaced your o2 sensors and if so what brand did you use and did you notice what brand came in your truck from the factory.

i was recently looking for 02 sensors and the cheapest I found locally without going online and ordering was the dealer at $72 each with 1 year warranty

Way too much. I got 3 Bosch's for my Exploder for $82 shipped...for THREE.


I just looked up on Bosch's website. Looks like you use the same sensor for all locations(15508). It says 4 total? I thought it was 3 so go out and make sure.
Advance Auto has them on their site for $32. LOOK

Canadian tire wanted $84 for 1 ngk and it had to be ordered in and Napa wanted $130. And im pretty sure the front 02 sensors are different from the rears, The 2 rears are the same but the 2 front are different

The info I got was directly off Bosch's home website! Most of the time, 02 sensors can be interchangeable as long as their harness's are long enough and they are all heated.

I have no problems helping anyone in canada out if a company won't ship to you so you can save a descent chunk of change.

I just bought 3 Bosch's for my explorer. They were all identical except the rear had a slightly longer pigtail with it giving it a diff. part number but the sensors internally and externally are identical. i did lots of homework before I purchased and I'm going out to install them now!

HERE is the Bosch part finder page. 4.7L looks to use the same front-back but 5.7L looks to be different front(15510) to back(15511) for 2008 anyways.

hmm if you can get them for $32 I may have to pay you some shipping and whatever extra for the 2 front ones. Wouldnt mind changing those out... My 2 rears are new though
