Built Tough for Off-Road Viper 988E

Serpent SER904147 5mm Aluminium Chassis is engineered to boost the Viper 988E's structural integrity for rougher surfaces. The plate gives a firmer base for suspension tuning and surviving hard landings or bumpy tracks.

How the 5mm Plate Improves Handling

The thicker aluminium reduces twist under load, helping the car track truer through fast sections. With a more stable chassis baseline, adjustments to ride height and dampers become more effective.

Specifications

Material: Aluminium
Thickness: 5mm
Compatibility: Serpent Viper 988E

Is this plate suited to rough or mixed surfaces?

Yes, the 5mm aluminium resists bending from jumps and uneven terrain better than thinner chassis, helping the 988E stay consistent on mixed surfaces.

Will the aluminium need any protection against corrosion?

Anodised or lightly treated aluminium will resist corrosion; regular cleaning after wet or dusty runs will extend the chassis life.

Can I combine this with aftermarket braces?

The plate works with most reinforcement parts that use the 988E mounting pattern, but check fitment and clearances before final assembly.

Will it change suspension settings much?

A stiffer chassis can alter the way the suspension reacts, so be prepared to retune camber and damper settings after installation.
