If it's the standard Cossie one (mine rattles too!), you'll probably find the thrust washers are knackered. Mine can't come off yet because some ejit bodged it on in a special way.

Ford don't have the refurbishment kits or damper assemblies any more - I tried getting them for mine last month, so I'm not sure what you can do.
