AST 5100 Series Shock Absorbers Coil Over VW Golf Mk2 1G

If you're looking to get the best road balance for your VW Golf Mk2, the AST 5100 Series STREET TCO SUSPENSION is a solid option. These coilovers are designed to help you maximize grip by controlling both the rebound and ride height of your car. They come complete with springs and are made to work with your car's original top mounts. Both the front and rear dampers use a coilover design, which prioritizes adjustability and performance. This setup gives you more control over damping settings and ride height, leading to more consistent and predictable handling.

The initial setup and spring rates are based on AST's extensive development and testing. You can easily fine-tune the suspension to your individual preferences by adjusting the rebound knob or altering the ride height. The rebound adjustment lets you control how the dampers return to their extended position, allowing you to achieve the ideal road balance for your specific needs. With 12 distinct positions for rebound adjustment, each setting offers distinct feedback and a unique driving experience.

AST Suspension uses a monotube design for these dampers. This is beneficial because the large piston inside allows for precise control over rebound damping. Monotube dampers prevent aeration and foaming, resulting in more responsive valving. These high-pressure dampers offer additional resistance when driving conditions demand it, increasing performance when you need it most. A notable feature is that these dampers are rebuildable, meaning any issues can be addressed at a certified AST service center.
