I've put a picture of the "hammers" for the bridge below. The only part that I can see that might be what you're talking about is the Tetrix Pivot Bearing (p/n W39093). We don't really like supporting anything on the servo shaft... it's plastic, so we try to do something for at least half of any potentially heavy object.

Several things. We do it to raise or lower the center of gravity. We OWN whatever space we are in (with the wheels at an angle we are impossible to push). We use it to push batons into the low goal when down. The back of the robot has a shelf that actually picks up and carries the rolling goal at the end game. It's cool...

I made the file and put it on the site. It may (or may not) be what you are looking for, if not, send me a note and I'll figure out how to export it better for you!
