Servo's are not strong enough to rotate a swerve base... at least the one's we can use.
The one year we did swerve, we used US Digital MA3 Absolute Shaft Encoders:

They will give you your position using an analog voltage from 0V to 5V, they allow roll over, and they work straight from an analog pin (5V supply). You also have the choice to use a digital mode which produces a pulse width based on the current angle.
