SPAX Suspension Kits for Sprite & Midget

SPAX telescopic rear suspension kit for Austin Healey Sprite and MG Midget

Adjustable rear suspension control for Sprite & Midget

Refresh the rear suspension behaviour of your Austin Healey Sprite or MG Midget with SPAX adjustable telescopic rear suspension kits. These kits replace the original lever arm dampers with gas-pressurised telescopic units that can be adjusted on the car without dismantling, with both bump and rebound adjustment built in.

SPAX kit range overview

The range is split by model generation, making it easier to select the correct kit for early or late Sprite and Midget applications. Each kit is supplied with the hardware required to install the SPAX dampers, whether the work is part of a suspension overhaul or a focused handling improvement.

Match SPAX dampers with the correct springs

Adjustable dampers perform best when the rest of the suspension is working as intended. If front coil springs or rear leaf springs are worn, replacing them at the same time helps maintain correct ride height, suspension travel, and overall balance.

Not sure which SPAX kit fits your Sprite or Midget?

If you are unsure whether your car requires the early or late rear kit, it is worth confirming before ordering. Fitment is based on model generation, and selecting the correct version ensures proper installation and performance.
