oxygen sensors

Hi guys, I'm gonna be replacing the o2 sensors on my truck and I was wondering if there was any difference in quality by manufacturer. I believe that bosch makes most of them, but about everything that I get with the bosch name on it seems to be junk. Also, I called the dealer and they wanted the vin # because they have different ones with different calibrations. Can anyone help me out a little there?
Thanks,
Robert

I'll have to get that to you tomorrow. I thought that I had my dad put the tittle in his safe but it's not there. Guess I'll have to look @ my house. Do you need the whole vin or just the last xxxx???
Thanks,
Robert

Motorcraft O2 sensors seem to be supplied by either Bosch or NGK.

Both make very good replacement O2 sensors for the Ford modular engines.
