Default Primary tensioner assembly

Bike 2009 flht Electra Glide.. I am upgrading a few things in the primary area..

Replacing stock primary tensioner assembly to new , (39929-06B).. When I removed stock assembly, there are 2 x spaces the mounting bolts go through behind the assembly... Are these spaces required for the updated assembly?
They are not even shown on the parts finder I use for stock installation.. I have checked the new assembly on the net, and they dont seem to come with the new assembly .. I have not seen a pic of the rear of the assembly, maybe the updated version, (39929-06B), they have changed the mounting area, and done away with the spacers !!! Cheers Guys...

Very early units came with the spacers, but the newer one does not need them. Put them side by side and you'll see.
