Service and Upgrade Top Nuts for Serpent 160126

Engineered to give a snug and repeatable hold, the Serpent 160126 Shock Absorber Top Nut Set supplies two nuts that secure the upper shock components. These parts are useful for both scheduled maintenance and modest performance tweaks, helping preserve correct spring alignment and shock travel. They work with a range of compatible shock bodies commonly found on RC cars and buggies.

Will these nuts change shock behaviour?

The nuts themselves do not alter damping, but by ensuring components stay in place they help the shock perform consistently during running sessions.

Are both nuts identical?

Yes, the set includes two matching top nuts intended for the two shock assemblies on most vehicles.

Should I replace these during a rebuild?

Replacing small parts like top nuts during a full shock rebuild is good practice to ensure reliable assembly and prevent future loosening or wear issues.

Do they require special tools to fit?

Standard small pliers or a thin nut driver can be used for fitting, but start threading by hand to avoid damage to the shock shaft.

Can I use these with aftermarket springs?

Yes, as long as the shock body and shaft match the Serpent 160126 fitment, they will secure aftermarket springs and related top hardware.
