Durable Rear Shock Tower from Serpent 601096

The Serpent 601096 Rear Shock Tower is built for the SRX8T chassis as a rugged aluminium replacement. Its reinforced design increases rear stiffness, helping the vehicle hold line through rough patches and aggressive braking. The component is aimed at hobbyists wanting a tougher mount for frequent off-road use.

Aluminium Strength and Weight Trade Offs

Aluminium gives a solid mix of durability and lightness, which helps maintain nimble handling while improving structural support. The Serpent 601096 leverages that trade off to give firmer feedback from the rear suspension without excessive mass.

Compatible with the SRX8T Setup

Made to match the Cobra SRX8 Truggy GP configuration, the Serpent 601096 installs using the existing points on the SRX8T. This straightforward fitment keeps setup changes minimal while delivering immediate chassis control improvements.

Specifications

  • Material: High-grade aluminum
  • Compatibility: Serpent Cobra SRX8 Truggy GP
  • Part Type: Rear shock tower

If you are pushing your SRX8T hard on rough tracks, the Serpent 601096 Rear Shock Tower is a sensible upgrade to increase reliability and sharpen handling.

A stronger aluminium tower resists deformation better than plastic, so it can reduce repeat damage in minor impacts, though hardware and mounts should still be checked after big crashes.
Check that you use the correct length and grade fasteners for secure mounting. Upgrading to hardened or stainless screws can improve longevity in abrasive conditions.
You may want to review oil viscosity and spring rate as the increased stiffness at the mounting point can alter damping behavior; small adjustments often restore desired balance.
