Exclamation Replacing 1997 corroded O2 oxygen Sensor bolts and nuts

Folks,

I have a 1997 Land Cruiser. I have a BO O2 sensor and went to replace both. The bolts are severely corroded and the nuts are well pretty much gone.

How does one deal with this situation. I assume there is am easier way to make the repair without having to replace the whole exhaust. I am looking for help and suggestons!

Replace the bolts. Trust me, you don't want the o2 sensor falling off while you're driving. It happened to my dad's 4runner because the bolts were really corroded.
