The Serpent 500192 - SRX2 Gear Differential Set is built to replace the stock ball unit with a tougher gear-based solution. It is targeted at drivers wanting longer service life and predictable cornering.
A two-piece composite casing contains a central 51T gear and a matched set of sintered metal pinions, 14T and 28T, chosen to resist wear while keeping rotation smooth. The gear geometry reduces erratic behaviour under braking and acceleration.
Aluminium cross-shafts include flat spots to lock components in place and the silicone seals are profiled to sit neatly in their grooves to keep oil contained. One housing half incorporates four small metal threaded nuts recessed flush with the case to support bolts from the opposite side. The diff adaptors are precision machined from Serpent Spring Steel SSS and lightened to achieve a dry weight of 28.9 grams.
This gear differential drops in for the balldifferential in the Spyder SRX2 with no chassis modification required, giving a straightforward upgrade path for off-road racers.
