Not that I've seen yet. The stock steering and suspension work so well (better than my SCX with VP CMS and HS-7950TH), why do you want to axle mount the steering servo?

In the early kits there was an axle mount. I think I have it

Interesting, now I recall reading about that. Do you have a part number and picture? Have you tried it? Mine's RTR and didn't come with that part and the RTR manual is not very useful, I need to get a kit manual. I donwloaded the kit manual awhile ago, but couldnt' get it to print out properly which is odd as it's in pdf format. I'll try again or buy one.

It wasn't supposed to be included in the kits but it was so they're most likely no part number

If you could mount the servos on the axle you could make the Ascender have rear steer pretty easy.

Yup, I've got one from my kit. Might come in handy for a future build.

Pics please? I love the stock CMS, but servo on axle is good option especially for custom builds with these axles.

There is a picture of the Axle mounted servo bracket on the first page of the Sticky by Rich, Things to know before you start building your Ascender.

I purchased my kit very early on, and that I can remember I didn't get one of these in the box. A friend of mine just bought a kit on Friday last week, the Hobby Store said its about a month old. It came with HD Shafts and Pinions, and it has the servo axle mount in the box. So I can say with some certainty that they are still making this mount.
