Recently I made this Servo mod to connect with Lego. I got to say it worked out great. One of my main thoughts about modifying the servo was that I'm going to try and keep the Servo in Original factory condition so I came up with this modification to the Servo Horn instead. From what I can tell the modification worked out good at steering. I got to drive the Extreme Cruiser for the first time with RC control but while I was driving around a couple of things came to mind, First thing was the fact that the Extreme Cruiser uses the smallest rack and pinion steering setup out there so it worked pretty well with the 3rd party Servo because it does not rotate +/- 90° like the LEGO Servo does and the +/- 60° range the 3rd party Servo has fit the range of motion perfectly for the small rack and pinion setup and can be couple together directly together. Second thing I notice was that I was going to need a 3rd party Servo that has a range of motion like the LEGO Servo does. building around the Servo motor is pretty easy and fits well with Lego.
