[QUOTE="Alex, post: 2477932, member: 207597"] When they say that Ford Taurus shocks are poor quality, they do not mean that all shocks for the Taurus are equally poor. They just mean that the Original Equipment Manufactured (OEM) shocks that Ford installs at the Factory in new Tauruses are poor quality. All you need to do is to get a third party manufacturer's brand of Shocks. Monroe for example. I had the same problem with my Chevy Caviler only it was the Rack and Pinion. GM front-wheel drive cars made in the late 80's have a problem with the Rack and Pinion. If you get the OM part, you'll develop the same problem in 40,000 miles. So instead of OEM parts, it was recommended to me that I buy a third party part which was compatible, yet was designed to solve the problem. Just get some quality brand shocks (Monroe is good parts for the money if not the best on the market) and they'll serve you better than OEM parts. [/QUOTE]
