Hello
Thanks for the donation.

I have interchanged many parts between the Sable and Taurus. Although I have never interchanged this specific component, I am certain that it will work. You can call your local Ford dealer to verify.

Hope this helps..

i ended up changing my rack and pinion myself. loads of fun. anyways, the rack and pinion on a 96-98 taurus is different on 99's. they changed a bit in the year 99 and are the same through atleast 2004.
