O2 Sensor
Hello everyone, I am new here and did ALOT of searching, as well as found a bunch of useful information, definatly one of the most useful forum's I have seen.
After saying that, I just picked up a 94 pickup SR5 to give my other car some rest (95 eagle talon TSI aka racecar) And needed something that is more family friendly. Toyota's have been in my family for a long time.
Anywho back on topic, I am looking to replace my o2 sensor, since 1 the threads are stripped, and two for maintenance. I want to weld on a screw in bung, but am lost as to what part number for a screw in o2 sensor to use. Can anyone give me a screw in o2 part number? I appreciate it.

The factory O2 sensors on a '94 mount to flanges (there should be two).
Stripped threads aren't common since they mount on flanges so that would mean more likely bolts broken.
I see where you're going.
If you want to mount a wide-band O2, just say so. The recommendations are to mount the sensor more than 20 degrees from horizontal and more than 10 degrees from vertical. Mount it around 1 meter / 3 feet from the head and go. Program the WBO2 to output analog to the ECU and imitate a narrow-band O2 and you should be fine, right?

I know what you are saying as I have narrowband simulation on my talon, however I use DSMLink (tuning software) to program my ECU to do that, but how would I do that on the truck? Isnt there a universal sensor I can just wire up?

There are plenty of universal sensors. If you go to RockAuto or Autozone or O'Reilly's and key in your information, you'll get a few "universal" O2 sensors listed after the real ones. Some even cost less than the real sensor. Since under the truck is one of the harshest environments possible for an electrical device, you'll need to wire in a waterproof connector.
What's the point?

Any specific brand that toyota's like? I know my talon only likes the Bosch. And reason being is my studs are stripped and instead of making a flange and welding on a new one, I can just weld on a round bung (easier/simpler).
