Installed the factory bracket and hydrolic dampener to the rear axle on my 01 Sport this past week-end. What a difference it makes on eliminating most of the horizontal movement of this short wheelbase buggy. It also has helped cut down on the vertical motion due to the lateral motion not being transfered and amplified to the vertical plane. Instead of ford putting these on the 95-97 4-door models for speed vibration, they should have put them on the 2-doors to cut down on the side-to-side motion due to the shorter wheel base. I'm very happy with this 5 minute, $60 (all new parts) up-grade.
