Default [Please advice]Best way solving CC01 steering problem

hello everybody, I am new to the RC world and would like to have some advices from you veterans
I have my CC01 chassis for 2 mouths and the steering is becoming unacceptable

After some research GPM will not be my consideration since its design flaw
My preference will be relocating the servo but the common way is cutting the chassis that may too difficult to a beginner

However I found another way to make it work

what is your comment to this mod? is it workable?
thank you very much!!

Yes, it works very well, although you will need to consider what body you're using and if it will look correct. I did this, but it did look that good with my FJ40.

I did it too about 5 years ago:

And I was not the first to do it, pretty sure.

Its a huge improvement but there is very minor bump steer (not affecting slow crawling) given its an IFS.

thanks bro all your answer
whether cutting large part of the chassis or not make me hesitate
i prefer the way that youtube link presented because only a few holes is needed to drill

however the main concern now is how to put the servo in the front of the chassis as the room there is not enough unless cutting two more gaps to fit it
wanna keep the chassis as original as i can

or i should buy a gpm steering kit plus some mod to it?
