AST Suspension Lowering Springs (60mm/40mm) - 1996-2000 Volkswagen Passat LIM TDi (3B)

The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1996-2000 Volkswagen Passat (3B) are high-performance coil springs designed to lower the vehicle's ride height by 60mm front and 40mm rear. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and consistency. The manufacturing process involves cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, followed by shot peening, phosphate treatment, and powder coating to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. These springs feature progressive rates on most vehicles, providing improved handling, reduced body roll, and a sportier stance without compromising ride comfort.

Designed specifically for the B5 Passat chassis from 1996 to 2000, these springs are a direct upgrade for models equipped with the TDi engine. They are suitable for street performance and daily driving, offering a lowered stance with enhanced stability and cornering capabilities. Installation is straightforward as a bolt-on replacement for stock springs, and the kit includes the necessary springs for both front and rear. These springs are ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved aesthetics and handling without extensive modifications, ensuring a reliable upgrade for the vehicle’s suspension system.
