The AST Suspension Lowering Springs for the 1976-1994 Volkswagen Derby (86/86C) are high-performance coil springs designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully selected by AST engineers for their quality and consistency. Each spring is cold wound, heat treated to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, then individually shot peened, phosphate treated, and powder coated for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a smoother ride while lowering the vehicle's stance, resulting in improved stability and cornering performance.

Designed to fit 1976-1994 Volkswagen Derby models with 0.9/1.3 engines, these springs serve as a direct replacement for factory components. They lower the vehicle by approximately 60mm at the front and 40mm at the rear, enhancing both appearance and handling. Suitable for street and performance use, they are ideal for enthusiasts seeking a lowered stance with improved driving dynamics. Installation is straightforward as they are bolt-on replacements, and the kit includes the necessary springs for a complete upgrade. These springs are engineered to withstand daily driving and spirited driving conditions alike.
