Default Dual Servo Mounts or what steering setup on LCG

What are the best options you have found in regard to front end dual servo mounts out there.
LCG build and rails are arched up front.
Which dual servo mount did you end up going with?
Or even a good single servo mount, but prefer the duals.
Would like to keep the weight as low as possible to reduce sprung weight.



The single steering servo mount as a laydown servo won't work well as I am running 324mm linksets and not 315, so the front is out father. considered going SOA on it, and still might as a side option. but atm am looking for a dual servo mount and a pan hard mount for this rig.

Thinking of just getting the SSD panhard mount as it would work with the axle setup obvioulsy, and it inexpensive for sure. But for dual servo mounts, there are a few options out there and wondering what you all found to work best for your lcg rigs.

I'm not opposed to a SOA, but as I'm not going for a full comp setup, would like to stick to CMS for now.
Been eyeing the Fish Products dual servo mount which comes with a panhard mount that CCW offers, but they are out of stock.
What are other stores that carry this stuff in the online world I can look?

I know about TGH DLUX etc, but what are others that carry this type of gear?

I use the gspeed/tgh dsm n vanquish panhard mount on majority of my rigs. The gspeed panhard mounts are good, but i personally dont like that setup. Thats why i say VP panhard. Other than gpseed n those u mentioned, thats the only ones i know of. The tgh ones are really light weight though...

Looks like GSpeed has a new lay down servo mount option coming in the next week or so. Says expected 25th.
I can get the TGH dual but only in Raw, and I want it in black of course and I can't find anyone with one in stock atm that I've seen>

As much as I want a dual unit, the Gspeed one looks good.

May just buy a Pheonix plastic setup as they are pretty damn stout and will do 2 servos. Plus it would keep the unsprung weight down a little.

I tried the CCW/Fish RC Prats Dual Servo Mount and the 70mm unit fit great, however, with this setup, it left Zero room for the horn or the servo top itself without stopping the left side from fully compressing.

So I ended up ordering the GSpeed LDSM. It's 68mm so a couple 1mm spacers and it was in place and allows JUST enough (and I mean RCH tolerances) room for full compression of both front shocks, keeping the servo out of the way, but allowing for the horn to drop down for steering. This should be a good fix for anyone else with no room.

This setup so far under full compression has the shocks fully compressed just as the axles are at the chassis. To say it's tight would be an understatement.



FISH RCParts DSM. Fit great but there is no room for the servo as seen in this first pic.


Here is the GSpeed LDSM in place.
