Snubber Installation

While searching about the pinion snubber, I found that there weren't many pictures showing where to drill. I have read and seen a close up pic of a "dimple", and that is supposed to be the exact spot to drill for the snubber bolt. The problem is that dimple from the pictures, and the dimple I have found do not look a like.

So I took some pictures of what I found and wanted to ask the people that have done this before if this is the correct spot to drill.

Yes. That circled location is the correct spot to drill. Good luck!

Thanks man.
I just got it installed, and it went pretty easy. The gap is a little bigger than I think it should be, but it's better than nothing right now. When I feel like getting dirty again I'll probably go adjust it again.

Drive-ability is not changed with the install. Where the real difference can be felt, is under hard launches and sudden throttle input, when the diff attempts to snap up from the torque.
