They are located and spaced the same way. The mount looks different depending on year. See post from multihdrdr showing the differences:

Of course, brand new seals and o-rings. There’s a p/n for a rebuild kit. You could also look at the racetech emulators or the ricor intiminators.

Can I order the right fork leg (disc, caliper, etc.), master cylinder, and brake lines for a '17 FXDLS and convert my bike?
Once you complete, you will love it. How Harley gets away with a single rotor beats me.
