You could make a custom servo mount in aluminum with a simple ball bearing that it would create the gap needed, just took one of your pics and made a simple drawing on how it could be done.
Just my two cents
Adjustable belt tensioner in front of the battery holder might work well. Raising the belt a little around that point and allowing to keep it tight as it stretches?
