On the 3.0 L and 4.0 L there are 2 oxygen sensors at the front and 1 oxygen sensor (which monitors your catalytic convertor efficiency) at the back after the exhaust gasses have passed through the convertor.

How many oxygen sensors are on the 2001 Dodge Dakota 4x4 with a 39 liter engine?

There will either be 2 or 4 sensors. It depends on the emission package that is on the vehicle. The only places these are located is one or two before the catalytic convertor and one or two after the catalytic convertor. I imagine that the V-6 has only two. 1 before and 1 after the Catalytic conv.
