Front Steering & Suspension Kit for 2008-09 Taurus Sable - 6 Piece

Our review of this 6 piece TRQ steering and suspension kit finds it best suited for owners of 2008-2009 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable AWD models who need a full-front replacement set. The biggest reason to buy is the convenience of a single, direct-fit package that replaces control arms, ball joints, tie rods and sway bar links together, restoring steering feel and handling without hunting for individual parts. For anyone restoring front-end geometry or fixing multiple worn components at once, this kit removes compatibility guesswork.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: The kit is designed as an OE replacement so components install without modification on compatible 2008-09 AWD Taurus and Sable fronts.
• Complete 6 Piece Kit: Includes two front lower control arms with ball joints, two outer tie rods and two sway bar links to address common wear items in one purchase.
• OE Reference Coverage: Supplied references cover many OEM and aftermarket numbers, helping technicians confirm part matching for vehicle-specific repairs.
• Anti-Corrosion Coating: Enhanced surface protection helps the suspension pieces resist rust for longer service life in road salt climates.
• Kitted for Restored Performance: Replacing multiple components together improves road-feel and alignment stability compared with changing parts piecemeal.

Who It's For

This kit targets DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2008-2009 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable All Wheel Drive fronts that need a coordinated overhaul of worn suspension and steering parts.
