The servo is only drilled through just behind the pot on it where the casing is hollow. I chose it directly center of the ram and just behind there for the best center pivot point to the actual ram. There is no modification other than what I have done for full rotation to the electronics. I will be using a piece of brass tubing running through with a wrist pin to pivot on like a normal cylinder would so everything will be encased. The screws are just temporary holders and work great.
