Ya and what the heck was with everyone back then drilling the hole on the side to access the servo screw. 90% of the chassis I have someone did this to:(

HI!... I guess I've been lucky then. I have 7 chassis's and only one has holes drilled in it.

Back when it didn't matter and they were everywhere we used to drill them to mount switches, or to hang the wire connectors out the side. Some added nerf bars that were actually made my CRP and others to mount to the chassis.
Req'd drilling.
