Yes, if you have to pass emissions. The second O2 sensor is mostly used to check if the catalytic converter is dead.

If you don't have emissions you don't need it. There will probably be a check engine light though. And you won't know when your catalytic converter has stopped removing toxic gases if you care about air pollution.
