Refine Dampening with Serpent 500489 Pistons

The Serpent 500489 Shock Piston Set is crafted for tuners focused on suspension refinement for the Spyder 1/10 offroad series. These pistons help achieve a more controlled and repeatable shock response.

Precision Turning for Consistent Action

Each Serpent 500489 piston is turned from quality bar stock to ensure accurate dimensions and consistent operation inside the shock. The 3-hole 1.2mm pattern is chosen to balance oil flow and responsiveness across different offroad conditions.

Flexible Tuning Range

Use the 500489 alongside Serpent alternatives like the 500488 (2-hole 1.3mm) and 500490 (4-hole 1.1mm) to alter damping rates and tailor handling to your setup and surface.

Are these pistons compatible with vintage Spyder parts?

Compatibility depends on the older shock bore and shaft sizes. The Serpent 500489 pistons may fit if clearances match, but measure the original piston and bore before fitment.

Will changing to 1.2mm holes affect ride height?

Hole size influences oil flow and damping feel rather than static ride height. Using 500489 pistons will change shock response, but ride height should be adjusted via spring preload if needed.
