This extended centring bodymount pin is a replacement RC component designed to locate and retain the polycarbonate body on Serpent S990E EVO platforms and the Viper 990e R configurations named in the product title. The long profile reduces lateral play by increasing the engagement depth between the bodypost aperture and the chassis mount.
Fitting is simple: remove the body, line up the pin with the existing mount hole, and refit the body following the chassis's normal bodypost and clip order. No chassis modification is needed for the stated models. The pin is intended as a location aid rather than a primary structural element, so check corresponding parts and renew any worn clips or retainers if necessary.
In setup and tuning this pin aids in producing consistent body placement run after run, which can stabilise aerodynamic characteristics and clearance settings. Inspect both the body holes and the chassis mounting points for burrs or distortion before final fitment, and confirm there is adequate clearance during suspension travel.
A handy service item for preserving body alignment on S990E EVO and Viper 990e R chassis during tuning and regular use.
