Default steering question

Ok I want to mount my steering servo to my chassis but the problem is the angle for the link is way too big so the steering wouldnt work. any ideas or pics of your steering set ups would help

Bend the linkage arm in a stretched out z shape. Lessens the angle so the ball can manuever. The arm is going to have to ben at least 3/4" longer to compensate for the bends.

the servo has got to be mounted low and to the side in order to keep that angle as flas as possible..
