NTK O2 Sensor Backorder For 99 TJ 4.0

[YonderNorthwest]

Hey all. I've got a 99 Sahara that's got dwindling MPG and occasional missfires. Time to replace the original 225k mile old o2 sensors. Placed an order on ngk.com and quickly got a response that the parts are "on national back order with no ETA". Did some googling to find mopar or resell alternatives. Found the downstream sensor (NGK 23099) on ebay for $55. No luck yet on an upstream (NGK 23151) option.

I checked out Chris's thread about o2 sensors and it seems going with any other brand is a no go. Any suggestions?

Thanks

It was made for Mopar by NTK.

That will work. Almost triple the price of what's on NGK's website too! The joys of vehicle ownership. Thanks, Jerry.

Just thankful to have the forum available to me. Without it I would have seen those prices and bought a Bosch. Then in 2 months end up buying the Mopar anyway. Buy once cry once right?
