What is the benefit of a monotube damper design?

Monotube dampers use a large piston for precise control over rebound damping. This design prevents aeration and foaming, which results in more responsive valving and consistent performance, especially under demanding driving conditions.

How do I adjust the ride height and rebound on these coilovers?

You can adjust the ride height by altering the coilover perch. The rebound damping is adjusted via a knob on the damper, offering 12 distinct positions to fine-tune the return stroke of the damper for your specific driving needs.

Are these coilovers rebuildable?

Yes, these AST dampers are rebuildable. If any damage or issues arise, they can be serviced and repaired at a certified AST service center.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to dial in the perfect road balance for your 2012 and up Lotus Exige S3 V6, the AST 5100 Series Street Non-Inverted Suspension is a solid option. These coilovers are built to help you maximize grip by giving you control over your car's rebound and ride height. They come complete with springs and are designed to work with your car's original top mounts, making installation more straightforward. The front dampers use a coilover setup, while the rear maintains a divorced setup similar to the factory configuration. This approach contributes to a more comfortable ride that still achieves excellent road balance.

AST has developed these kits with vehicle-specific, fixed spring rates for the rear, based on extensive testing and development. You can easily fine-tune the setup to your personal preferences by adjusting the rebound knob or altering the ride height. The rebound adjustment lets you control how the damper returns after compression, allowing you to achieve the ideal road feel for your driving needs. With 12 distinct positions for adjustment, each change offers a noticeable difference in feedback and the overall driving experience. The monotube design of these dampers features a large piston, which is key to precise rebound damping control. This design also prevents aeration and foaming, ensuring more responsive valving and consistent performance across various driving conditions. Plus, these dampers are rebuildable, meaning any issues can be addressed by a certified AST service center.
