Default how to mount servo to front axle

my wheely king is a work in progress and my next mod is to mount the servo on the axle. i've done a search on here and found loads of differant ways of doing it. what in your opinion is the best way? i've been into rc for years but never made my own parts so a simple method would be best, thanks

Simplest way for the WK is a bracket that bolts to the diff housing.

ya just having it mount to the diff is best I know the mount that put's it directly on top of the diff works really well cuz I have it on mine, and it hasn't failed me

I made the mount that centers the servo over the diff and it seems to work well. The battery box (flipped chassis) comes real close but I haven't noticed any major problems with it.
