Probably pretty bad. Sounds painful. I've never done the O2 sensors on my back. Didn't know I had any there. How often should they be done? Mine are 38 years old.

Not only that, they're hard to reach. And mine are waaay older than that!

just did both upstream "on my back" yea pita, but can be done. wear goggles to prevent debris from falling in your eyes. used 1/2 drive ratchet with 18 inch extension and wobly between the ext and socket. i cut the old harness at the o2 sensor to enable the use of a deep socket. installed them with stubby wrench as the new harness prevents the use of a socket. downstreams are a breeze. buy/rent the o2 socket to make things easy. you can do it, from 1 to 10 id rate it a 6. nothing underneath a vehicle is easy/comfortable "on your back".
