AST 5200 Series 2-Way Motorsport Suspension

AST Suspension 5200 Series 2-Way is a high-performance adjustable suspension system developed for demanding Motorsport and Track applications, providing precise control over damping characteristics and chassis response.

The 5200 Series features 2-way damping adjustment, allowing independent adjustment of Rebound and Compression. This gives drivers and race engineers greater flexibility when tuning the suspension for different vehicle setups, tire characteristics, circuit conditions and driving styles.

Rebound adjustment controls the extension behavior of the damper after compression, while compression adjustment controls the damper response as the suspension compresses during braking, acceleration, cornering and changes in track surface.

Independent damping adjustment provides a wider setup window than fixed-damping suspension, allowing the chassis response and vehicle balance to be fine-tuned according to the demands of each application.

The AST 5200 Series is designed for performance applications where suspension setup is critical to extracting the maximum potential from the vehicle and tires. Its adjustable damping allows changes to be made as track conditions, tire characteristics or vehicle setup evolve.

AST develops its suspension systems using vehicle-specific configurations, with damper valving, spring specifications and mounting hardware selected according to the intended application.

The 5200 Series 2-Way is particularly suitable for track cars, race cars and high-performance vehicles requiring independent damping adjustment without the additional complexity of a 3-way system.

Exact damping ranges, ride-height configuration, spring rates, mounting hardware and other specifications depend on the specific AST Part Number and vehicle application.

Professional motorsport installation and suspension setup are recommended, including ride-height adjustment, corner weighting, wheel alignment and damper tuning.
