Track-focused rear differential for Serpent Natrix 748 V2

The Serpent 804391 rear differential set is a practical upgrade aimed at improving the Natrix 748 V2 drivetrain. The revised case captures extra oil to keep the diff characteristics more consistent during long runs, and it incorporates a small bleed hole to let surplus oil escape during assembly, which can later be closed with a grub screw for neat maintenance.

Construction, axles and pulley advice

Gears in this assembly have a deeper profile for a better fit, and the kit uses very light hardened spring steel axles to resist wear. The diff cases are fitted with a moulded spring steel bushing for extra support. To use this V2 differential you must fit the updated larger pulleys and a compatible side belt; the larger diameters lessen belt flex and can improve acceleration. Pulleys are supplied in both standard and white low friction options to suit different tuning choices.

Compatibility and serviceability

The diff gears are also suitable for 748 V1 gear differentials, making the 804391 an effective replacement part when refurbishing older units or updating existing cars.

Yes, the 804391 can replace worn gear differentials, and its improved oil retention helps restore consistent performance to older cars.
Fill the diff until gears are lightly submerged and run the unit to allow air to escape through the bleeder. Fine tune the amount depending on whether you want more lock or freer action.
Inspect for visible wear or play at each service. Any lateral movement or noise under load suggests checking axle condition and bushing fitment.
White low friction pulleys reduce drag and can benefit many surfaces, but testing on your specific track surface is recommended to ensure consistent lap times.
The moulded spring steel bushing is designed for longevity. Replace only if you notice excessive wear or play during routine inspection to maintain precise diff behaviour.
