Serpent 601387 C-hub 17deg KPI L+R Aluminium SRX8 V2 steering hubs  [SER601387]

Serpent 601387 C-hub overview

This Serpent SER601387 C-hub set is an RC-scale steering component for the SRX8 V2 chassis, supplied as left and right pcs with a 17deg KPI (King Pin Inclination) angle in aluminium construction. The part is intended for hobby-grade track cars where small changes to steering geometry influence handling and tyre wear.

Installation replaces the stock plastic or alternative hubs and mounts to the standard SRX8 V2 upright assembly without requiring additional machining. Use common workshop tools to remove the upright, swap hubs, check steering link lengths and confirm droop and scrub settings after fitment. Maintain correct bearing endplay and verify wheel alignment before running.

Tuning role: the 17deg KPI alters scrub radius and initial steering behaviour; expect modest changes to turn-in and on-centre feel. Combine this hub set with incremental adjustments to tie rod length, toe and camber to evaluate its effect on understeer/oversteer balance. As an aluminium part it provides consistent geometry and reduced flex compared with softer materials.

For chargers of incremental handling changes, this aluminium C-hub pair lets you evaluate KPI-driven steering effects on the SRX8 V2 platform while keeping a straightforward install and service routine.
