ST Suspension
ST Suspension
Need to get low? ST coilovers feature a continuous thread construction for height adjustment from moderate to extreme!
Each coilover is manufactured by KW automotive with the expertise and capabilities to ensure maximum quality and fantastic driving dynamics.
Adjustment is different for each car, but typically you can expect between 35 and 65mm of lowering on both the front and rear axles.
ST coilovers deliver a sporty handling by reducing the car’s body roll during compression as well as improving agility when driving fast. The high-quality production of each ST kit includes a low-friction and pressure resistant housing alongside a chrome-plated piston rod for maximum longevity. A monoblock guide and ST seal package ensures the twin-tube dampers remain free of dirt particles in all weather conditions.

KW Suspension
KW Suspension
KW is the leading developer and manufacturer of street and race suspension products.
KW Coilover suspensions are manufactured for a large number of vehicles, and are sold all around the world. The initials KW and the trademark colors of yellow and purple, stand for individuality, quality and security.
During manufacturing of KW Coilover suspensions, the highest quality materials are used to produce individual suspension solutions that enable customers to adjust vehicle height according to their wishes and needs. Within the TÜV-tested adjustment parameters, this can be easily achieved using the purple-colored aluminum spring collars by adjusting the position of the yellow coated springs upwards or downwards via a specially designed exterior thread. In doing so, the vehicle height can be precisely adjusted, and customers receive exactly the result they want and/or need.
The stainless steel strut housings are fitted the specific vehicle, and are available in three different damping technologies. With this variety, KW Coilover suspensions in Variants 1, 2 and 3 can meet the exact requirements of every customer.
The complete systems including high-quality yellow springs, purple aluminum components and Elastomer bump stops with integrated dust protection system, provide a unique comprehensive solution for a personalized vehicle suspension system that meets all performance and quality demands.
KW Variant 1
With the KW V1 coilover kit you can make a technically maximum possible lowering in a tested frame infinitely variable. The KW dampers used have a vehicle-specific, permanently configured setup with a sporty, harmonious tuning so that you can experience an optimum balance between sportiness and suitability for everyday driving. Even with a full payload and maximum axle loads, the dampers operate with a sporty characteristic curve.
KW Variant 2
The KW V2 coilover kit offers you a technically maximum possible and individually adjustable lowering as well as the possibility to further adjust our vehicle-specific and preset sporty-harmonious damper setup. The manual adjustment of the dampers allows you to adjust the tuning in just a few simple steps. Thanks to the KW "TVR-A" technology, with 16 exact clicks you can influence the handling and driving comfort yourself in a targeted manner, in order to give your car a firmer or sportier driving behavior if desired.
KW Variant 3
Do you set great store by a performance-oriented driving experience in combination with a technically maximum possible and individual lowering in everyday life? Our worldwide best-selling coilover suspension kit, the KW V3, is the ideal suspension for you. The dampers with their "TVR-A" and "TVC-A" technology, which can be separately adjusted in compression and rebound, allow you to further adjust the vehicle-specific preset basic damping setup to your individual driving requirements. This makes it easy for you to directly influence the steering behavior, directional stability, tire grip and handling characteristics in a decisive way for safe controllability at the limits. In addition, despite the maximum lowering, you benefit from a sporty and harmonious rolling comfort.
KW Variant 4
With the KW V4 coilover kit, we adapted one of our racing technology for everyday use on the road and give your high-performance vehicles a clear plus in everyday suitability. The three-way adjustable high-performance dampers allow you to independently adjust the rebound damping (KW "TVR-A" technology) as well as separately tunable low-speed and high-speed compression damping (KW "TVCLH-A" technology). We deliver your KW V4 for your sports car or high-performance vehicle with a vehicle-specific performance setting. With the adjustable dampers, you can - if desired - intuitively switch to a comfort setting with the integrated setting adjusters on KW V4. Depending on the vehicle-specific design and axle geometry, the KW V4 has aluminum unibal support bearings.

RANCHO RS5000
Rancho RS5000 shocks have been the shock of choice all over the globe since 1985. These iconic shocks were the first to deliver application-specific valving and are tuned to each unique vehicle model. Ideal for work or play, Rancho RS5000 shocks deliver a comfortable highway ride while being responsive during off-road driving on any stock or lifted application. The world’s most proven performance shocks!
Features:
- Ten-stage velocity sensitive valving
- Provides tuning specifically for each vehicle
- 5/8-in. (16mm) diameter piston rod
- Adds strength and durability
- 1 3/8-in. (35mm) diameter piston
- Ensures performance in any environment
- Protective boot included
- Protects the shock rod and oil seal
RANCHO RS5000X
The Rancho RS5000X series design includes patented progressive rebound and compression discs. At lower speeds or in the earlier stages of the shock’s travel, a low-speed tuning disc in the valve shim stacks will engage the valving at lower frequencies, helping to control the energy of motion as the cycle of the shock increases or decreases in its action.
When hitting a pothole, off-road trail obstacle or similar activity, Rancho’s Progressive Engagement Valving allows for an early flow of fluid, helping to reduce harsh initial impacts and to control the flow of fluid in a progressive, gradual manner through the valving.
During on- or off-road driving activities like washboard roads or when travelling a rough fire road, the early flow of fluid helps to minimize a “rough” ride as the piston movement is able to glide through the initial travel motion of the shock with minimal ground impact or force. If needed, the Progressive Engagement Valving will further engage to maintain control and stability.
Features:
- Progressive Engagement Valving
- Tuned Compression Control Valve
- Enlarged 2-1/4-inch Twin Tube Body
- Gas Pressurization of Shock
- 16 mm Nitro-Carburized Rod
- Full-Displaced 35 mm Bore
- 1-3/8-inch Diameter Sintered Iron Piston
- Rebound Bumper

RANCHO 4×4 LIFT KIT
Complete Rancho Lift Kits are available as an all inclusive suspension package!
Rancho kits include Rancho RS5000X Shocks, Raised Springs and required fitting components.
The Rancho RS5000X series design includes patented progressive rebound and compression discs. At lower speeds or in the earlier stages of the shock travel, an eccentric disc in the valve shim stacks will engage the valving at lower frequencies, helping to control the energy of motion as the cycle of the shock increases or decreases in its action. The twin tube, gas pressurized shock has a variety of advantages including minimizing air-to-oil mixture that can cause foaming and shock fade.
