Are you planning to sell the truck?

At some point in the future yes. Haven't decided yet. But for now I just want it to be back to stock with everything working. I know I can code out the sensors but I'd prefer everything to be working as expected. Especially something as simple as O2 sensors.

Anyone know the difference between Canada-built and USA-built trucks? Autozone and Oreillys both show different sensors depending on where it was built. I think mine is USA-built since the VIN starts with a "1". The sensors I've been using are for USA-built.

Do you know someone with a similar truck you could put your sensors in to make sure they are working?

Unfortunately I don't.

Welp... I figured it out. Turns out the 2 sensors I got on eBay were bad. When I bought the 3rd sensor at Autozone and tested it, I neglected to ground the sensors case to the exhaust. It works fine once the case is grounded. The sensors I got online are the same as the one I got locally, albeit without the boxes and half the price. Maybe they were fakes.

Hopefully I can return the O2 sensors even though I installed them. If not, I'm going to file a complaint with PayPal.

Definitely need to be screwed in or grounded to work. Glad you figured it out.

Yeah glad you got it fugured out. I try to buy electronics from parts stores that way they are easy to return for warranty when/if they go out. I hate dealing with online stuff.
