We used Bosch on most of the cars in the shops I worked at as well. The
newer 4-wire Dodge O2's are a little harder to find...that's the ONLY
reason for suggesting them for the Gen-III's.

Borg Warner had a massive recall on their O2 sensors a few years ago...I
don't touch them unless they're the single wire for the A/F gauges.

"Factory replacement is about the only way on the O2 sensors. I've seen

to many aftermarket (cheapy) O2 sensors fail after 20-30K miles.

-Gee, I've been putting Bosch's in cars at my shop to replace all the
failing factory units for years. Maybe I should switch?! Patrick (All
kidding aside, stay away from no names, Tomco, and universal type
aftermarkets if you do not buy a factory sensor. The best aftermarkets
are Bosch and Borg-Warner direct fit.)
