Default Axle hitting servo

I'm working on my kit and I have the servo installed but now when I compress the front end the axle hits the servo. Obviously I've done something wrong but I don't know what. Any help?

The servo goes on top of the frame instead of underneath

All you have to do is take a small file to the little "gussets" on your servo that won't allow it to lay flat on the top side. Takes about 5 minutes and doesn't hurt a thing.

Sorry to resurrect this from the dead, but I've got the same problem, except my servo is already on the top. Is there a fix? Rig is a completely stock Marlin.

Yes spacers to raise the servo. Look at my post titled new tf2 lwb. You will see the pictures

Yes, I had to space my servo up on my Marlin. Here is a pic of the spacers and a pic of the suspension fully compressed with the spacers.
