The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1983-1990 Ford Escort Cabrio are high-performance suspension components designed to reduce ride height by 35mm, enhancing handling and aesthetics. Constructed from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked for their quality and metal consistency. The manufacturing process involves cold winding, heat treatment to increase hardness and minimize internal stresses, followed by shot peening, phosphate treatment, and powder coating to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. These progressive-rate springs provide improved stability and responsiveness, making them suitable for enthusiasts seeking a sportier ride and better cornering performance.

Designed specifically for the MKIII-IV/ALF/ALD models of the Ford Escort Cabrio from 1983 to 1990, these springs are a direct replacement for the factory units. They are intended for street use and offer a lowered stance without compromising ride comfort or safety. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on components compatible with the original suspension setup. The kit includes the springs only, requiring no additional parts for installation. Ideal for daily driving or spirited street driving, these springs deliver a combination of performance, durability, and improved vehicle stance.

Overview

AST Lowering Springs for the 1983-1990 Ford Escort (MKIII-IV/ALF/ALD) are manufactured from a premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire which is handpicked by AST engineers for its quality and metal consistency.

Each spring is cold wound and then heat treated to increase hardness and reduce internal stresses present after winding. Each spring is then individually shot peened, phosphate treated and then powder coated to outlast even the life of the vehicle.
