Rediscovering RC || Episode 29 - Converting the Serpent X20 to a '21 Edition

Hi, and welcome back to Rediscovering RC! I know, I've been away a while, but only because I've been SUPER busy preparing for my first race in almost 20 years! In the meantime, let's talk about the possibilities of converting the X20 to its '21 spec. If you are interested in performing this upgrade/conversion, there are some tough decisions you have to consider making. Even if you don't do a major conversion, there are still some parts worth considering for your X20 that might be very well worth it. In any case, I made the "crazy" decision so that you don't have to - or maybe you still will! Below is a full list of the parts used for my conversion, organized by section, if you want to make select upgrades: Front Bumper 401921 Foam bumper X20 '21 $5.94 401919 '21 Front bumper assembly $6.50 401904 '21 front body posts $5.82 or... 401954 '21 front bumper Assy carbon $15.01 Fr Suspension Area 110114 M3x8 setscrews $3.36 401922 Fr steeringblock inserts $31.52 110409 3x5x1 shims $12.67 401925 Steeringblock Spacer set $13.77 401923 Steering blocks $8.30 401924 Steering levers (Carbon) $15.84 401903 V2 DJC's (used in the FWD car) $56.48 - and you will need... 401131 5x10x3 bearings Chassis parts 401897 LiPo mount set $30.07 401949 '21 Carbon chassis $83.23 401927 '21 Top Plate $31.07 401124 3x6x2.5 bearings $5.39 401929 23mm standoffs $8.19 401892 X20 FWD stanoffs (29mm) $14.95 401926 X20 '21 motor mount $42.23 401928 X20 '21 Servo mount $34.20 Rr Suspension 401888 +4 inner suspension bracket $45.80 Misc Parts 401932 Steering rack standoff $4.92 401833 3x6x6 bushings $3.97 401588 Steering mounts $9.31 110464 3x6x2 shims $13.74 Hardware 110104 M3x8 countersunk screws $5.05 110108 M3x6 buttonhead screws $5.56 110122 M3x6 countersunk screws $5.56 110124 M3x8 buttonhead screws $5.05 110184 M3x14 countersunk screws $5.56 So, the grand total for ALL these parts (+ another $20 for additional packs of hardware) is.... $534.05 - Granted, all of these prices are MSRP, and your cost may vary... for example, this is NOT what I paid for all these parts, so in the end, the decision is up to you on how many of these upgrades you might want to do. At a minumum, I do recommend that you upgrade to the front bumper assembly, which is a straight bolt on, and the front steering block conversion looks like another good candidate for a simple swap to the X20.
