Ah, the fine Windstar!! Have two of them myself. Just took one off the road and did the head gaskets on the other. Started her up and was the Power Steering was noisy. It had been sitting awhile, not quite a year and I don't remember it that noisy. Its not too bad straight driving but turning those wheels lets everyone know who you are! I'm going to find out for myself if the pump can be rebuilt or have to get another one.

AnswerIt is time for a professional inspection to avoid spending more $$.I had a similar situation with brakes on a Windstar. Diagnosed it myself to be brakes - did fronts, still grinding - did the rears and guess what - was still grinding! Turned out to be rotors that did not show anything wrong, but was still the cause.Save money, time & frustration - get a pro involved. (you can still do the repair yourself.)Answerwhich one did you replace Spent $700 more and replace them all OR take it to a mechanic to actually fix it

What is the grinding sound in rt front wheel of ford windstar?
A grinding sound / feel is most typically due to something related to the brakes. In my 2001's case, it was the rotor - even after changing the pads, it was still grinding. 2 new rotors and it was *smooth* sailing, and braking. Sidebar: bad wheel bearings usually create a very noticeable humming - like someone who doesn't know the words to the song...
