I think most servos are stepped up where the output shaft is which gives more clearance. You can put a spacer between the servo horn and output shaft if you need the servo horn to sit higher. Can you bend the front brake rod slightly so you get more clearance in the eyelet? I dont know about the mbx8 diff mount.

So I tried shimming the top and bottom rod in every way possible and there's still a little binding against the eyelet on the bottom rod. My only guess now is to try the MBX8 diff mount and hope that the front brake cam is raised slightly to prevent the rod from binding or to get the non offset version of the Hudy servo horn.

You could start with the .5 thick one shown in the manual on the drawing that I posted on the previous page. The real question is are you using the mugen plastic parts or are you using the xray ones that you mentioned back in January when dgrobe told you that you would probably have to shim the brake differently?

I do not believe you really need the aluminum throttle horn. Steering yes, throttle not so much. We have never had a failure or problems with the stock one and we race almost every weekend.

No the spline one is more like a bushing. There is another washer shown in that image that each screw goes through first that should create enough space.

Yeah, I'm using a .5mm washer under the screw. It still doesn't help correct the angle that the rod is at no matter if I try using one or two of them. Even using the stock Mugen linkage, the bottom rod is angled and makes contact with the top of the eylet on the cam. I'm wondering if using the mbx8 center mount will correct that problem.

Maifield buggy
From the looks of this photo, if the horn is fully on, I see two possible things. First you could move the eyelet closer towards the spur. Second is the set screw holding the spacers on the other side of the linkage. You may to rotate those to keep from hitting anything. Maifield ran the same servo in his buggy also.

Yeah. Maybe I'm just being over concerned. Do you have a link to the bushing/washer for the servo spline? I'm trying to find one and I'm having a hard time.
