alignment

It looks like you will need one after doing the struts.

Quoted From edflower:

I have a 2001 Ford Windstar and I am going to change the front struts and sway bars. Do I need to (or have to) get a front end alignment after I do the job? Thanks for your help.

You should, at a minimum, get it checked. Most shops (in my area) will only charge between $10 and $20 for the check. If you’re lucky enough that everything is within spec, you won’t be out much money. However, in my experience (have aligned lots and lots of cars in my life), that will never happen with a Windstar – you will almost certainly need an alignment.
