Anyone have pics of this detail.... Just to make sure I am clear on exactly the way this should be done
Here is the left side, the circled area is closest to the middle of the car, or towards the diff. So the right side you only need to grind out the left side of the slot, closest to the diff.

If you're supposed to grind out the hole towards the middle of the car, shouldn't the template be off center? The one in that pic seems to be centered over the hole instead of favoring the side that needs to be dremeled.

I imagine that SPC says to center the template and grind both sides to give you the max amount of adjustment in both directions. But most likely you'll only need to adjust towards the "inside". Someone correct me if i'm wrong
