FAQ

Optimise your GT drivetrain with Serpent outdrives

The Serpent 601281 lightweight differential outdrive set is aimed at racers wanting cleaner drivetrain behaviour in 1/8th on-road GT cars. By reducing internal friction, it helps keep lap times consistent and decreases the need for frequent rebuilds.

Low mass outdrives with centring function

The reduced weight profile combined with an integrated centring cross pin produces a more connected axle feel while still allowing necessary differential movement. This lowers the chance of gear binding and improves overall drivetrain smoothness.

Why racers fit this upgrade

Enhanced Durability: Designed to endure the demands of competitive running and reduce premature wear.
Smoother Operation: Less internal binding leads to more predictable throttle response.
Improved Lap Times: Minimising diff drag contributes to faster and steadier laps.

Are these outdrives compatible with stock Serpent diffs?

They are compatible with many stock Serpent 1/8th diff housings, though you should verify spline and seating dimensions for your specific model.

Do they need special greasing or lubrication?

Use the recommended diff grease and check for correct application; proper lubrication helps prevent wear and maintains smooth action.

Will they affect handling on different surfaces?

Reduced differential drag benefits handling on smooth tarmac and carpet by making the car more consistent, though setup tuning still determines ultimate grip balance.
