What is the benefit of the external reservoirs?

The external reservoirs on these coilovers provide a larger volume of oil, which helps to keep the dampers cooler under heavy use. This allows for more consistent damping performance and prevents fade during track driving or spirited driving sessions.

How do I adjust the compression and rebound settings?

The compression and rebound adjustments are made via separate knobs, often located on the external reservoirs or the damper body itself. Each adjustment position offers distinct feedback, allowing you to fine-tune the suspension's behavior for specific track conditions or driving preferences.

What is the purpose of the camber-adjustable top mounts?

The camber-adjustable top mounts allow you to modify the front suspension geometry. This adjustment is crucial for optimizing tire contact with the road during cornering, which can significantly improve steering response and overall front-end grip.

About this part

Product Details

The AST 5200 Series coilovers feature a MONOTUBE design with external reservoirs, allowing for separate adjustment of compression and rebound damping. This setup is built for serious performance driving, giving you the ability to fine-tune your suspension for track use. The inverted strut design is particularly strong, built to handle the significant side loads and braking forces common in performance driving scenarios.

With 12 distinct positions for both compression and rebound adjustments, you can precisely dial in your car's handling. Adjusting the rebound controls how quickly the damper extends, while compression damping dictates how fast it compresses. Balancing these settings can reduce body roll during cornering, improve steering response, and help maintain consistent tire contact for better traction. This kit also includes camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts, offering further geometry tuning to enhance front-end grip.

This set comes complete with springs and is designed to give you the flexibility to customize your suspension's behavior for optimal performance on the track. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details on setup and adjustment.
