I dont see any disadvantage to it..... I found this when I was doing steering set-up in my rig. Hope it helps. Strong Steering |

You don't have a tie rod hanging low.... but I've heard of a lot of guys burning up servos that way.

bergs are wierd in the way where that is one of the only ways that you can really set up the steering using the stock servo mount. the other way is to have the servo arm facing up like this Bonus line's berg other than that there really is no need for it. i suck at driving and a servo arm facing up would last 5 min on my truck |

Wouldn't the horn be more protected when up higher rather than down low where it snags and gets smacked by rocks? I thought the problem with the upturned horn was that it made the angle too big and reduced the ability to better transfer the power between the horn and the knuckle. | |

True true! I did run mine up like that for a while - I was trying to raise my links up a bit so that they hooked less. I was more concerned about the bashing I was giving the horn when I ran into things while rightsideup. I never thought of the upsidedown problems because my rig NEVER rolls over . . . . . NOT |
