The good news is that changing sensors isn't too hard. The bad news is that there are four sensors on the exhaust (two pre-cat and two post-cat-- cat being catylitic converter). The rear ones run about $60 each and the front ones, according to my parts man, are about $120 each.
No special tool is needed, but try to get as much room under the truck as you can. All four sensors are visible and accessible. They are variously screwed into each of the exhaust pipes. To remove, I used a crescent wrench, but I think the nuts (part of the sensor) are 7/8. Find and disconnect the wire connector before unscrewing the sensor. (Note: there is a small clip that must be removed from the connector before you can lift the locking flange.) The new wire connector comes as a part of the new sensor.
From there, simply unscrew the old sensor, treat the threads on the new sensor (with the goop that's included in the box), screw it in, then reattach the wire connector.
This is probably not one of the most professional answers, but I hope it helps.
