Solid axle retrofit for Cobra GT8-E racers

The Serpent 600961 Solid Axle Center Set is a direct retrofit that replaces the centre gear differential on a Cobra GT8-E to offer a cleaner mechanical setup. In many GT-E classes racers use very stiff centre diffs and heavy oils; this solid option delivers a simpler feel and can improve forward drive and braking performance on corner exits and stops.

Rugged construction with race parts

Forged from 7075 T6 aluminium, the centre adaptor works with lightened spring steel adaptors to balance strength and weight. The kit includes a 48T composite gear plus two NSK bearings to keep things running smoothly. It is compatible with existing centre gears so installation is straightforward.

Specifications

  • Material: 7075 T6 Aluminum
  • Gear: 48T Composite Gear
  • Bearings: NSK High-Quality Bearings
  • Compatibility: Fits all current center gears

Well suited to racers seeking a no-nonsense upgrade that tightens acceleration and braking on the Cobra GT8-E.

Will this change require shock or roll centre adjustments?

Switching to a solid axle can alter traction and weight transfer, so review shock settings and roll centre to rebalance handling for your usual tracks.

Is the Serpent 600961 durable for club racing use?

Yes, the 7075 T6 aluminium adaptor and steel components are selected for longevity under racing loads. Regular inspection and bearing maintenance will extend service life.

Do I need to change diff oil or settings after fitting?

Since this replaces the centre differential, diff oils for the centre are no longer applicable. You should still check front and rear diffs and tune them to complement the solid centre setup.
