Also I noticed a difference between my TT and some pictures that I've seen. My motor mounts are close to the cast aluminum frame. First is a picture of my TT motor mounts. The mounting shafts extend above the frame surface and there are grooves for the retaining clip to fit either where they are now (low and close to the frame), or higher up on the shaft. (Here you can also see the very dirty drive pulley which I will clean up on the rebuild)

I also have seen several pictures like this one, where the retaining clips are at the higher of the two grooves, further away from the frame, and with additional rubber (I assume) absorption on the motor mount shaft...

Can you all educate me on these differences? Should I aim for picture #2, with additional parts / absorption in mind?
