TRD Pro skid plate jack point

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I'm wanting to lift both front tires off the ground simultaneously. Likewise, I also have the TRD Pro skid plate installed.

Can some please confirm from the attached image that circled area is the proper location of hydraulic jack placement?

Thank you.

Looks similar to the OEM. Look at the other side, is there something built up there that would contact the front end suspension member? In other words, the skid plate isn't strong enough to lift the vehicle, but if a little piece contacts the steel cross member, that is strong enough to lift the vehicle.

Thanks Ezlife45. You are right, the skid plate itself doesn't come in contact with the frame, but there is a raised piece of material that is bolted into the skid plate and positioned on the opposing side of that dimple, and that piece does come into contact with the frame. Attached is an image to what I'm referring to (credit to user "Cymon").

Not that it is a big deal, but a short 2x6 with a hole the size of the dimple bored out takes some of the abuse that the aluminum gets from a jack. Also, if your 4R is lifted or on bigger tires the jack doesn't run out of throw too early with the extra wood spacing.

Maybe it's just me but that one appears to have been crushed a little. I wouldn't expect that folded piece of steel to support the vehicle. On the right I would expect the "bend" to be vertical, not folded over itself. OEM pans have a little column like piece of metal there, more than a folded piece of sheet metal.
