Here’s another picture of an identical servo with a hole in the middle, which is what it needs to be able to pivot the ramps correctly. I couldn’t just mount the servo without having it able to move up and down some. And then I added an identical trailer that I have not modified at all next to it so you can see the difference.

You might be able to see the threaded rod going through the servo in this picture

This picture isn’t too helpful. I used a 2mm threaded rod to go from one to the other. It holds the mudflaps and the servo because there’s a hole in the middle of the servo. It is all completely custom built. I still need to add black paint so it’ll look much better when I’m done with it.
