Default Steering servo link customizing

Before anyone jumps on me, the search function doesn't work for me. It won't let me type anything. The problem I have with my Ascender is that the angle of the steering link to servo horn (tie rod?) is too great, and this puts excess strain on the servo.

One solution I can think of is to have spacers to allow the servo to drop down closer to the axle. I just can't find a ready-made solution for this.

Another option would be to add a spacer where the tie rod screws into the drag link, but I think this would put unwanted stress on that point.

Of course, I can just use a longer servo horn, but I wondered if anyone has tried my other options at all.

Any ideas?
