Harbor freight has an o2 socket for less than 10 bucks, tho you can usually get it off without a special one.

7/8ths

I used a standard combination wrench when I put mine back in during my header install. Some O2 sensor bungs have a protector ring welded in place around them. Ours don't. That's the only reason I can see needing the special socket. Only if you can not physically get a wrench around it.
If I'm wrong I'm sure someone with more experience will chime in. Just going on my experience.

7/8th, hit the end of wrench with a hammer to tighten it, then hit with hammer to loosen it, piece of cake.

I'm putting 2 o2 extenders on for my hi flo zzp stainless 3 inch catted dp. I got a code sayin the downstream was burnt right after i put on my hi flo magnflow dp. Hope the o2 still works after putting the o2 extensions on!

Sure, you can get it with a wrench. IIRC it's a 7/8's. Might do better if you have a short wrench. I replaced the one on my 00GT with just a wrench. Best chance of getting it out is to soak it w/ PB Blaster for a day or 2 then try and remove it while the manifold is still slightly warm (assuming you are talking about the upstream 02 sensor).

Yea im talkim bout the downstream. im going to put o2 sensor extensions because of the hi flo cat

Probably won't need to soak it because... Arizona. LOL!

In my experience, having the correct closed end wrench is the best way to remove them. Of course you remove them when replacing, so I cut the end off to slip the closed end over it.

Lool yep native
Btw i was wondering if I could use a bic lighter to clean my o2 sensor? I dont jave a propane torch

why do you need extensions for the rear o2? and why 2 of them?
and whats the code you got?
buy a new o2 sensor.

Po141. But ive cleared it. Driven 20 miles then the light goes on

thats your up stream sensor, the one in the rear exhaust manifold. not the post cat one.
