That's what I thought, but the owners manual (not the FSM) said that it should
be 5/8's of an inch below on the rear axle while the front axle should level
with the hole.

Now if the correct answer is level (or if that is how everybody else is doing
it, then that that is fine with me, I just needed someone else to confirm
because this is the first time i've done my diff.

Thanks

Chris
