Re: 95 taurus...got front and back struts put in but still sounds front end is loose

What year is your Taurus? The front suspension design changed in '96 I believe. I don't believe any of the Taurii had sway bar endlinks per se, but swaybar bushings could be dry/polished causing your noise, or the control arm bushings could be causing it, strut mounts could do it, and so could subframe mounts.

I'm assuming your mechanic verified there were no loose parts in the front end and aligned your car after replacing the struts, right, so we can rule out the obvious things like tie rod ends (inner or outer) and ball joints?
