With these SF Racing Air Struts, the 1992-1999 Volkswagen Jetta MK3 (A3/1H) can sit low for shows and still lift up for real-world roads, because each corner rides on an air spring instead of a fixed coil.

How this kit is set up for the 1992-1999 Volkswagen Jetta MK3

Damper bodies are 52mm front and 50mm rear. Damping is 1-way, with one adjuster that changes rebound and compression together.

Key features

  • Air springs in place of steel coil springs, so ride height is set with air pressure
  • 1-way damping adjustment (rebound and compression set together)
  • Air management (compressor, tank, valves and controller) is needed to run air struts; contact us to confirm exactly what is included with this listing
  • Bolt-on replacement for the factory struts, unless the notes below say otherwise

Who it suits

Ideal for owners who want a low parked stance and practical ride height for driving.

SF Racing air suspension for your Volkswagen Jetta MK3: what to know

Air suspension lets you raise and lower the car on demand, so a Volkswagen Jetta MK3 can sit low when parked and still clear driveways and speed bumps.

  • Chassis code A3/1H: you can usually find it in your vehicle documents or by decoding your VIN.

Parts that usually go with it

  • An alignment. Any change in ride height changes camber and toe. Set your final height first, then align.
  • Camber and toe adjustment. Bigger drops often need adjustable arms or camber plates to align properly. See alignment and camber kits.
  • Management. Air struts need a compressor, tank and controller unless the listing says they're included.
  • Wheel and tire clearance. Check clearance at full lock and full compression, especially with wider wheels. Our ride height and wheel fitment calculator shows how much drop and offset change you are planning.

Questions about Volkswagen Jetta MK3 air suspension

Will this fit my Volkswagen Jetta MK3?
It is listed for the 1992-1999 Volkswagen Jetta MK3 (A3/1H). Check your year, model, drivetrain and chassis code against the product title. If anything is different, contact us and we will confirm fitment with the supplier before you order.
Do I need an alignment after installing air suspension?
Yes. Changing ride height changes camber and toe. Set your final height, let the suspension settle, then get the car aligned.
How low can I go?
It depends on the adjustment range the brand lists, your wheels and tires, and how you use the car. Most cars that are driven hard work best with a modest drop that leaves enough suspension travel.
Where do specs and warranty details come from?
From SF Racing. We sell parts from several brands and suppliers, and each one sets its own specs, lead times and warranty terms. The product details above are the latest we have.
