When you run the wire under the servo after raising it a bit, that 4mm will be more like 6mm. I got long threaded ball studs from a Tamiya 417 and secured it with nuts.

Any 3mm ball stud will work. It will probably be easier for you to find an AE ones in C-U.

When you order them, remember to get 10-12mm long, 3mm set screws for front droop adjustments. Use them to replace the Tamiya washer and button screw that comes in from the top. The grub screw will come in from the bottom. Makes droop so much easier to change and you don't have to pop the arms off to do it.
