Boost Chassis Reliability with Serpent 160131 Aluminium Shock Bodies

If you are refining a setup, the Serpent 160131 Aluminium Shock Body Set for RCM-SS brings a durable option that reduces flex under load. Built from precision aluminium, these bodies help preserve damping performance across long running sessions.

Why Choose Aluminium Bodies

Aluminium offers a blend of strength and light weight, cutting down unwanted deformation and aiding consistent rebound behaviour. That stability makes it easier to dial in handling on loose or technical surfaces.

Where These Work Best

Designed around the RCM-SS platform, these shock bodies suit drivers who push suspension limits on dirt, grass and mixed terrain. They are useful for fine tuning spring and damper settings when seeking sharper response.

Can I reuse my current shock caps with Serpent 160131?

In most cases current caps will fit, but check thread pitch and cap depth; some setups may need caps matched to the new body length.

Will aluminium affect shock heat dissipation?

Aluminium can dissipate heat more evenly than plastic, which helps during long runs, but oil type and shock design remain the main factors for heat control.

Are rebuild kits the same for aluminium bodies?

Shock rebuild parts like seals and pistons are generally the same, yet verify internal diameter and seal dimensions before ordering replacements.

Should I adjust spring rates after fitting these bodies?

Many drivers fine tune springs after fitting aluminium bodies because the reduced body flex can change the effective spring feel; test progressively to find the right balance.
