Or you can use the piston (assuming it's a double piston) to lift the mecanum off the ground. Then you would need to actually attach the piston to the module, maybe using these
rod ends from mcmasters.
I notice that you have an extra bearing on the end of the traction wheel shaft. What is it for?
For the bracket that holds the piston: one side is attached to the frame, what's the other side attached to?
