OEM plug and play = peace of mind for an O2 sensor. I don't bother with aftermarket sensors for sake of the frustration and headache if it doesn't work. The sensor is probably original and its not unusual for it to go bad at that mileage. My upstream went at about 185,000 and the downstream at about 225,000. +1 on getting a new set of axles. Its way easier than rebuilding/repacking the boots and CV joints. If you've got plenty of time on your hands, rebuilding them isn't all to bad. And cheaper. As far as an Ebay rad goes, cross your fingers it doesn't crap out in 1-2 years. I've read many a horror story about them. Good luck.
