Default How is everyone stripping the O2 sensors???

I keep reading threads about how everyone is stripping the O2 sensors when they install a header.

I had no problem when I put on my MMW. I used a pipe wrench to loosen the sensors and they screwed right into the new header/S-pipe no problem.

I just dont get it....
