Improved Rubber Motor Mount

Here's the service bulletin that explains this new mount.

Here's a few pics of the mount that is broken and where it breaks too.

As viewed from the bottom looking up.

Have these motor mounts been upgraded on the '07 models?

Here's the answer to that question Steve.

Can anyone give me any advice on changing the front mount. I'm pretty sure the shaking problem I've developed over the last few days is a bad one. A buddy has just returned from the HD store with a new one for me.
Can't find anything to help me change it in the service manual. Probably because my manual for my 99' is so old, they didn't realize they would be as big of a problem as they are.
That said, any tips on changing one would be appreciated.

If you use a floor jack to support the engine so you can lift it a bit after it's unbolted, you can also remove the regulator and stabilizer link to access the mount. After that, it's a simple exchange.

Don't know how I missed this post.
