The AST 60mm/40mm Lowering Springs for the Ford Escort are performance suspension components designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Crafted from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are engineered for durability and consistent performance. Each spring undergoes a meticulous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness, and shot peening to reduce internal stresses. The phosphate coating and powder coating finish provide superior corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity beyond the vehicle's lifespan. These springs feature progressive rates, offering a balance between comfort and performance, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking a lowered stance with improved stability.

Designed specifically for 1983-1990 Ford Escort models (MKIII-IV, GAA, GAF, AFF, AFD), these springs are a direct fit for vehicles with compatible suspension setups. They serve as an upgrade for street-driven vehicles aiming for a lowered profile and enhanced cornering capabilities. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on replacements for stock springs. The kit includes the springs themselves, with no additional components required. Suitable for street and spirited driving, these springs provide a performance-oriented upgrade that maintains ride quality while delivering a lowered, aggressive stance.

Overview

AST Lowering Springs for the 1983-1990 Ford Escort (MKIII-IV/GAA/GAF/AFF/AFD) 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.
