Serpent 500897 13mm Shock Rod End +3 (4 pcs)  [SER500897]

13mm Shock Rod End with +3 Offset Adjustment

This Serpent 500897 rod end is a compact replacement part made for RC dampers that accept 13mm shock rod ends. The +3 variant is supplied as a pack of 4 pcs and is intended to alter linkage geometry or preload where a slightly longer rod-end offset is required.

When fitting, follow normal damper disassembly procedures: remove the original rod end, screw in the +3 unit, then check thread engagement and free movement of the linkage. No specialist tools are required beyond common hex drivers and pliers typically used in RC maintenance, and this item is sold as an aftermarket accessory for model suspension tuning.

In setup terms, the +3 offset modifies effective link length and can be used as a measured change when tuning roll centers and shock leverage; change one parameter at a time and note handling differences.
