Default TLT Servo mounting options

I hope this hasn't been covered....... And no, I didn't search, too busy at work and ran into some problems last night at home.....

I was wondering how many different ways there is to mount the servo to the axles, as well as the upper links above the servo.

Also, does anyone have a good picture of their axle link mounts and shock mounts? I have looked at all kinds of pics, but I can just not see what I am looking for.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

Talking how mine are set

This is how I did mine. Trick is to get them as vertial as you can from the front view. Linkage layout I would say will vary depending on type of chassis.



I suggest you give a look at some of the build up threads here many have pics of the shock mounting.

Thanks for the pics ya'll.

And I have looked at several of the build up threads. Just trying to put all the ideas in one place, and then go from there. Similar to what the stickys are at the top of this page.

Maybe next we need something bout dropping a pede in one of these, and mounting and locking info .... I mean options.
