Upgrade your Spyder shocks with machined 4-hole pistons

Specifically made for the Spyder 1/10 offroad line, the Serpent 500490 Shock Piston Set features square-machined pistons with a 1.1mm four-hole layout to improve damping precision. These pistons let you tune suspension response for gravel, grass or compact tracks.

Consistent manufacture for predictable performance

Produced from bar-material with careful machining, Serpent 500490 pistons deliver consistent hole geometry and longevity. That precision helps maintain stable damping throughout a race or extended practice session.

Broad compatibility across Spyder chassis

Designed to fit both 2WD and 4WD Spyder 1/10 models, these pistons give tuners the freedom to alter rebound and compression characteristics without changing shock bodies. They work well with a range of spring rates and oils.

If the shock bore and seal dimensions match modern Spyder parts, the 500490 pistons should fit. Verify shock internal diameter before fitting to older chassis.
Yes, oil weight affects damping more with precision pistons. Start medium and adjust lighter for more response or heavier for added control on rough tracks.
Basic shock service tools are sufficient: a small pick, shock oil syringe and a clean workspace. Careful handling prevents nicking the piston or seals during assembly.
Do back-to-back runs with the same spring and oil, swapping pistons only. Note changes in mid-corner grip and landing control to evaluate the 500490 effect.
