Looking to replace a sago palm in the front garden.

I want to take the sago palm out of my garden. It is in the bed on the corner.
What are some good options to replace it with?
Max height about 8 ft.

If you can find them, these are nice and meet the height criteria.
Dwarf Majesty palm
Pygmy Date Palm

You looking for a evergreen shrub, deciduous (loses leaves in winter) or does it matter? What are light conditions - full sun, parial sun?
Parial sun - number of Camellia sasanqua (evergreen) that top out around 8 feet. For example Leslie Ann Camellia LINK
Numerous varieties of dwarf crape myrtles (deciduous)
Some newer varieties of dwarf Vitex (Chaste Tree) that are getting good reviews.

i hope the sago isn't mature. I dug two mature ones out last year and lawd they're a bitch.

Either one. I don't want any more palms though. Had 3 sagos in the back and one in the front. Pulled the 3 in the back up because of the dog, and now i really just don't like the look of this one.

Gets good morning sun, then shaded from an oak tree in the afternoon.

I like these!

Then sounds like the Leslie Ann Camellia sansaqua could be a good choice for you. Camellias grow slowly so you’ll usually pay more for large specimens than for other shrubs. Maybe look for 7 to 10 gallon size. A 3 gallon size may take a while to grow to the size where it stands out in the landscape.
My 3 Sago Palms hit the curb some years ago - they look good for the first several years but go downhill after that.
