Performance Carbon Front Shock Tower for Serpent 811 GT

The Serpent 600699 Carbon Front Shock Tower is a race focused upgrade made for the 811 GT. Fabricated from quality carbon fiber, this tower provides increased stiffness and lower weight to help drivers achieve more consistent suspension behaviour and quicker response.

How Carbon Improves Handling

Carbon fiber provides a strong but light alternative to traditional materials, reducing flex and improving feedback through the steering. The Serpent 600699 enhances stability under cornering loads and assists in more predictable suspension tuning.

Mounting and Compatibility Advice

The Serpent 600699 is produced to align with the 811 GT mounting points so installation is generally straightforward. Use recommended hardware and check alignment of the shock mounts and towers before final tightening.

  • Part Type: Front Shock Tower

For racers seeking a reliable way to stiffen and lighten the front of their 811 GT, the Serpent 600699 is a practical addition that supports better suspension control.

Will this tower survive regular racing use?

Yes, carbon fiber is durable for racing, but like all parts it should be checked after heavy impacts and replaced if damaged.

Does it require different shock settings?

A stiffer front tower can change feel, so you may need to adjust spring rates or damping to restore balance and driver preference.

Are replacement parts available if it gets damaged?

Spare towers and compatible hardware are commonly available from hobby suppliers; keep a spare on hand if you race frequently.

Can I paint or coat the carbon?

You can apply light coatings or vinyl for aesthetics, but heavy paints can add weight and should be avoided if you want to keep the part as light as possible.

What basic checks should I do after fitting?

After fitting, check all fasteners, confirm shock alignment and test for any binding through the steering and suspension travel before full throttle runs.
