Machined 27T Aluminium Idler for SRX2 Chassis

The Serpent 500260 27T aluminium idler is a precision machined spare for the SRX2, offering a longer life than the original composite piece. It installs straight into the chassis without any trimming or adapters.

Why Choose Aluminium for the Idler?

Aluminium brings greater rigidity and improved resistance to repeated impact and heat. The hard coat finish reduces surface wear and helps maintain consistent drivetrain behaviour over many runs.

Fitment Notes for Spyder Series

This idler is cut to suit Spyder 1/10 buggy 2WD RM and MM variants and has been prepared with the Spyder SC truck in mind. Accurate tolerances mean reliable engagement and fewer setup tweaks trackside.

Can I swap this into older Spyder models?

Older Spyder designs may differ in spacing; verify gear mesh before running. This idler is optimised for current SRX2 geometry.

Does the hard coat affect lubrication?

The hard coat is compatible with standard gear lubes; use a light film to reduce noise and friction without gumming the finish.

Is the 27T tooth count ideal for racing setups?

27T is the direct replacement tooth count for SRX2 stock setups. It preserves final drive ratios while improving component life.

What should I inspect after installation?

Check the mesh across a few steering cycles and confirm there is no binding. Recheck after the first few runs and tighten if needed.
