The AST Lowering Springs for the Ford Orion are high-performance suspension components designed to reduce ride height by 60mm front and 40mm rear. 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 improve fatigue life. The phosphate coating and powder coating finish provide superior corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity even under demanding conditions. These springs feature progressive rates, offering a balanced combination of comfort and handling precision, making them ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved stance and cornering capabilities.

Designed specifically for the 1983-1990 Ford Orion models, covering MKIII-IV and various chassis codes such as GAA, GAF, AFD, and AFS, these springs serve as direct replacements for stock components. They are suitable for street use and spirited driving, providing a lowered stance without sacrificing ride quality. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on upgrades, compatible with the original suspension setup. The kit includes the springs for both front and rear positions, ensuring a complete upgrade. These springs are perfect for drivers aiming to enhance their vehicle’s appearance and handling performance on daily drives or weekend outings.
