How do I adjust the suspension settings?

The AST 5300 Series coilovers feature external reservoirs with adjustment knobs. You can independently adjust rebound, low-speed compression, and high-speed compression to fine-tune your suspension's response.

What is the benefit of the MONOTUBE design?

The MONOTUBE design is known for its ability to handle heavy side loads and braking forces more effectively than traditional twin-tube dampers. This leads to more consistent performance under demanding track conditions.

Do I need special tools to install the camber plates?

Installation of the camber-adjustable top mounts may require specific alignment tools to set your desired wheel geometry. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions or a professional alignment specialist.

Product Details

Already running a track-focused setup? The AST 5300 Series 3-Way Motorsport Suspension is the next piece to fine-tune your BMW E36 3 Series. This kit lets you adjust rebound, and both low- and high-speed compression separately using external reservoirs. It’s built for serious track use, handling heavy side loads and braking forces.

This kit features a MONOTUBE coilover design front and rear. You get full control over three critical suspension aspects: rebound (how the damper returns), low-speed compression (gentle bumps), and high-speed compression (sharp impacts). With 12 positions for rebound and separate adjustments for compression, you can dial in body roll, responsiveness, and tire contact for better traction and handling. The kit also includes camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts to further alter front-end geometry and grip.
