A plastic flat plate could be used that attached in front and behind the servo using existing chassis servo holes. It could have countersink holes to the sides that allow using standard servo mount blocks. Or the plate could have brackets that fit around the servo mount flanges and a top strap to hold the servo if. Either is simple enough to do. Once the servo is installed, you would find out if the steering needs full left and right throw or not. Many of my buggies end up with only 70 - 75% needed before the steering blocks are at full limits.

It looks like a bigger challenge is the steering arm hitting the chassis. The biggest challenge is getting a decent block of time to assemble this.

Argggg I want to click the pics for clarity but it won’t work…. Why does this happen sometimes !?!
Last post I made with a couple pics the last one did this. I know I placed them all inline in the single post
Likely because the pics JosephS uploaded are all too small.

I blame iOS, for giving me the options. I'll see about posting up bigger ones to the original post.
