What is the difference between the 50mm and 35mm drop?

The 50mm figure refers to the amount the front springs will lower your vehicle, while the 35mm refers to the rear springs. This creates a slight rake, which is common for a lowered stance.

Do I need any other parts when installing these lowering springs?

While these springs are a direct replacement, it is highly recommended to have your vehicle's alignment checked and adjusted after installation to ensure proper tire wear and handling.

What does the lifetime warranty cover?

The lifetime warranty covers the springs against breaking. It ensures that the springs will not fail structurally under normal driving conditions for as long as you own the vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 1996-2003 Mercedes-Benz Vito a lower stance and a sportier look, these AST Lowering Springs are a solid option. They're designed to replace your factory springs directly, making the swap straightforward. The goal here is to reduce your vehicle's center of gravity, which can lead to improved handling characteristics without sacrificing too much of the comfortable ride you expect from your Vito.

These springs are cold-coiled using Wafios coiling machines, a well-known brand for precision equipment in spring manufacturing. This process helps ensure a consistent and durable spring. The progressive design means they offer a good balance – they'll compress more easily under normal driving conditions for comfort, but stiffen up when you need them to during spirited driving or cornering, contributing to better performance. You get a 50mm drop in the front and a 35mm drop in the rear, giving your van a noticeably lower profile.

AST backs these springs with a lifetime warranty against breaking, so you can install them with confidence. While these springs are designed to work with your existing suspension components, it's always a good idea to have your alignment checked after installing lowering springs to ensure everything is set correctly.
