This component is a front outer wishbone bushing produced by Serpent intended for SRX8GTR EC GP kits. It replaces the outer pivot insert at the upper wishbone-to-hub carrier junction and functions as the load-bearing pivot at the wheel end in the front suspension.
Fit this bushing when replacing worn plastic inserts or when you want a lighter, stiffer carbon option to sharpen suspension response. The carbon fiber construction changes local stiffness and can affect steering feel, turn-in behavior, and mid-corner balance during track sessions.
Installation notes: confirm fitment with your SRX8GTR EC GP kit part map, remove the wheel hub assembly to access the outer wishbone bore, press the bushing into the arm until it sits flush, then reassemble using the original fasteners and alignment shims. After fitting, check for any freeplay and verify steering geometry before running.
Tuning considerations: a carbon outer bushing reduces compliance under lateral load, so expect crisper turn-in and altered roll center behaviour. Make incremental setup changes and test in controlled runs to evaluate effects on steering bite and rebound control.
