First off all I must say what a good and neat job you did at the rear. :thumb: :thumb:
For the front struts, two are the options:
1/Buy and change the whole unit as one, (spring and dumper).Something you can do yourself, following the manual's instructions.
2/Change just the dumpers.Not recommended if you don't have any experience on this and can be dangerous handling the spring compressor.
Since the car is a 2004 Escape, it is recommended after all these years to change the struts' top mounts with their bearing.
Also check the condition of the sway bar links and the two bushings of the sway bar.
When everything is done and finished the car has to be taken for alignment.

...and discs or no discs at the back, there are still drums, (little they may be), for the hand- brake.
