An independent mounting module is receivable within a housing of an injector configured to dispense a substance from a cartridge insertable into the housing through an injection needle of the injector. The mounting module includes a first mount and a second mount. The first mount is configured to receive a driving assembly engageable with the cartridge to expel the substance therefrom. The first mount is selectively securable to the injector housing and has a cantilevered mounting arm extending therefrom. The second mount is configured to receive an actuator operatively connectable with the driving assembly. The second mount is attached to the cantilevered mounting arm and suspended therefrom, thereby being supported by the cantilevered mounting arm.
