Question How to?? Replacing Gen 3 V6 O2 sensor near firewall

I am replacing the O2 sensor by the firewall (bank 1 sensor 1), and would like to know what procedures some of you found worked best. It does not seem to be covered in the Toyota manual - testing is, but I can't find a description of the best way to go at it.

I have an O2 socket but its still a pain in the butt!

There are too many lines etc. in the way to get a rachet on it from underneath - I can get am open end wrench on the O2 socket, but there isn't much leverage from the position.

It really looks like going from above and removing some of the intake (or the whole manifold) may be easiest in the long run.

Anybody see this in the manual - maybe I missed it somewhere.

Let me know how you went about it.

TIA
Robar
