Inverted monotube dampers, adjustable for rebound damping and ride height; coilovers at the front, and a separate spring and damper at the rear as the car was built.

Compression damping sets how quickly the suspension moves in; rebound sets how quickly it extends again. The dampers work with external reservoirs, mounted remotely. The struts are inverted, which AST use because that design copes with heavy sideways loads and with braking. Where the car needs them, camber-adjustable front and solid rear top mounts are included. Spring rates can be changed, and the rebound adjuster has 12 positions.

Low-speed compression looks after slow, gradual movement of the suspension; high-speed compression looks after sharp, hard hits. The dampers work with external reservoirs, mounted remotely. The struts are inverted, which AST use because that design copes with heavy sideways loads and with braking. Where the car needs them, camber-adjustable front and solid rear top mounts are included.
