Westar ST-2944 Suspension Strut Mount - Front

Westar ST-2944 Front Suspension Strut Mount

Westar ST-2944 is a front suspension strut mount for select Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable applications. It is built to provide the pivot point, secure strut-to-body locking, and road-noise isolation needed to keep the suspension operating correctly.

Compatible with 1996-2007 Ford Taurus, front, and 1996-2005 Mercury Sable, front, this strut mount supports steering response and helps reduce vibration transfer into the cabin.

Key Features

• Provides a pivot point for the suspension to rotate on, helping maintain proper suspension dynamics
• Helps support steering accuracy and reduce tire and component wear caused by incorrect suspension movement
• Locks the strut and body together for a secure upper mounting point
• Includes a noise-dampening design to reduce road noise and vibration inside the vehicle
• Built with application-specific materials and a protective finish for durability

Detailed Description

The Westar ST-2944 suspension strut mount is engineered for front-end service on Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models. As the upper connection point for the strut assembly, it allows controlled rotation during steering while keeping the strut properly located in the body structure. That function is important for maintaining suspension geometry, consistent handling, and even wear across related steering and suspension components.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 902944) for the same application. The ST-2944 is also a relevant search match for drivers looking for a front strut mount for 1996-2007 Ford Taurus or 1996-2005 Mercury Sable service.

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excess vibration or road noise entering the cabin
• Loose or inconsistent steering feel from worn upper strut support
• Premature tire wear related to suspension movement issues
• Wear at the strut-to-body mounting point

Installation Notes and Tips

Install the strut mount during front strut service and inspect the surrounding suspension components before reassembly. Verify correct orientation and torque specifications for the vehicle application. For best results, replace worn mounts when addressing front suspension noise or steering concerns on Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models.

Quality Assurance

Westar uses application-specific materials and a protective finish intended to support durability and appearance in service. ST-2944 is built as a direct-fit suspension strut mount for the listed front applications.
