Front shock body, 13mm for Serpent

This front shock body is an RC-scale replacement component intended for Serpent shock assemblies that employ a 13mm shock tube. It directly influences oil volume, piston movement and seal performance in typical 1/10 touring and on-road applications.

Practical notes for installation and setup:

  • Confirm a 13mm outer diameter on your current shock tube before purchase so Serpent caps and shafts align properly.
  • Drain shock oil before removing the old body and inspect pistons, shafts and seals; replace worn pieces to ensure reliable operation.
  • Select shock oil carefully and set oil height and bleed consistently; even small adjustments to oil level change damping response.
  • Check that O-rings are in good condition and that threads engage fully during reassembly to prevent leaks and ensure stable rebound.

The part is strictly for RC model use and should be handled as a model-scale shock component during maintenance and tuning.

An effective replacement option for Serpent 13mm front shock setups, made to restore or refine front damping on hobby 1/10 scale cars.

Yes. Changing the body or oil height modifies internal volume and travel, which shifts damping characteristics and can noticeably affect handling balance.
Begin with your baseline oil level, then make small incremental changes and test on track; record each setting since small volume shifts produce clear differences in feel.
Pistons determine flow rates and work with the body’s volume; you may need to try different piston types to optimise damping after the replacement.
Perform a bench-check for leaks, then run controlled on-track laps to assess rebound and compression; tweak oil height and piston choice based on lap feedback.
