You'll have the new parts. If you buy it from a place that had it sitting on the shelf, then you might not. Although quite a few of us have broken it, there's more that haven't. Don't let this break your confidence. It's an awesome platform and Serpent CS is top notch at taking care of the issue.

I will be placing a order for the updated chassis just in case I run mod. I try and support the local hobby shops and bought 2 kits in the last month. I would of thought it would of had the updated stuff in it. I set it up for stock so I have had good luck with the oringinal. But it would of been nice to have the stronger chassis from the start like EasyE said

Just ordered my mm today. I struggled with the decision between serpent and losi. I feel like the losi comes with some good parts ie coated shafts, machined shock parts but the serpent has all adjustability you could need in the box. I couldn't see paying $13-15 for a rear toe change. Adventure RC here we come.

shocks binding on kit build
almost through the build and hit a major snag. The rear shocks bind really bad having the shaft and piston built. I removed the small mold on the pistons but it didnt help.
anyone else have this problem?
I hope i didnt make a mistake going for the serpent because with bound up shocks its basically junk 
Please help!!
