Precision Tuning with the Serpent 401746 Stiffener

The Serpent 401746 Chassis Stiffener is designed to adjust torsional flexibility on Serpent 4X vehicles. Fitted between the servo mount and the front topdeck stiffener, it provides a compact link that helps refine handling on the circuit.

Small Part, Big Setup Impact

This short stiffener is aimed at racers who want to tune chassis response. It is compatible with the double vertical topdeck and the flat topdeck designs, offering useful weight savings that contribute to sharper acceleration and improved midcorner stability.

Clearance and Shim Requirements

Using the Serpent 401746 together with rear topdeck stiffeners and the motor mount requires a 4mm shim to maintain correct clearance. Proper shimming prevents binding and keeps steering geometry stable at speed.

A 4mm shim is recommended when the rear topdeck stiffener and motor mount are present to ensure correct spacing and avoid contact under load.
Yes, increasing torsional flex at the front can alter cornering behaviour. Expect changes to turn-in and midcorner feel and adjust shock or roll bar settings accordingly.
It is designed to work with Serpent topdeck stiffeners. When mixing components, check stack heights and add the recommended shim to keep alignment correct.
