Serpent 401746 Chassis Brace for Tuned Torsion

The Serpent 401746 Chassis Stiffener is built to tune torsional flexibility on Serpent 4X models. As a short brace between the servo mount and the front topdeck stiffener, it supports a more adjustable handling feel for track use.

Designed for Tuners and Club Racers

This compact stiffener is aimed at drivers who fine-tune flex settings. It works with new double vertical topdecks as well as standard flat topdecks, offering adaptable fitment and helping to trim overall mass for better cornering agility.

Installation Tips and Required Shims

Note that using the Serpent 401746 alongside rear topdeck stiffeners plus the motor mount needs a 4mm shim to set proper clearance. Proper shimming keeps alignment and avoids binding during high speed runs.

Compatibility depends on aftermarket topdeck geometry. Measure mounting points and heights; many modern topdecks will accept the Serpent 401746 without modification.
Shifting to a shorter stiffener increases torsional flex, which can improve traction and make the car more forgiving midcorner. Balance it with damper and roll bar settings.
Standard Serpent mounting hardware is typically used, but check screw lengths to avoid interference with electronics or the topdeck.
Yes, the added flex and lower weight can benefit offroad setups, though you may need to retune suspension to suit rough surfaces.
