Anchor 702944 Suspension Strut Mount - Front

Front Suspension Strut Mount for Taurus and Sable

Anchor 702944 is a front suspension strut mount engineered for OE-style fit and function. It mounts at the top of the strut assembly to reduce vibration and noise while helping preserve suspension alignment and steering response on Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable applications.

Key Features

• Front suspension strut mount for the top of the strut assembly
• Helps dampen vibration and road noise
• Supports proper suspension alignment and consistent steering response
• Natural and SBR rubber construction for durability and performance
• Heat-treated grade 5 steel fasteners
• Rubber-to-metal bond uses a special bonding agent
• Rubber compound is mixed to a specific Durometer hardness
• OE-standard engineering and design

Detailed Description

Anchor 702944 is a suspension strut mount for front applications on 1996-2006 Ford Taurus and 1996-2005 Mercury Sable models. It is built to replace the upper strut mount interface that isolates the suspension from the body, helping control noise, vibration, and harshness while maintaining stable steering feel. This part cross-references KYB SM5113 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excess vibration transmitted through the strut assembly
• Noise from a worn or deteriorated upper strut mount
• Reduced steering consistency caused by mount wear
• Suspension alignment concerns related to mount deterioration

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1996-2006 Ford Taurus, front. Fits 1996-2005 Mercury Sable, front. Verify the strut assembly condition before installation and inspect related suspension components for wear. Proper alignment service after strut mount replacement is recommended to confirm steering and suspension geometry.

Quality Assurance

Anchor 702944 is engineered to OE standards and uses natural and SBR rubber, heat-treated grade 5 steel fasteners, and a bonded rubber-to-metal design. It includes a 12-month warranty.
