I then cut some circular blocks to fit in my old floor jack to put underneath the blocks. This will prevent cracking the wood.



I threw a couple of these jack point blocks in my trunk, in case I was at the road side and needed to jack my car with a regular jack (I don't have the bmw jack kit and live 400 km from the dealer).

Give yourself some credit. This is a great idea. Thanks for the measurements and material choice.
