Quickjack 3500
I don't know if this is posted in the right section.
I searched and found no information about anyone using the quickjack 3500 to raise an E90. I measured the jacking point on my E90 and they are 49in apart. Anybody raised an E90 sucessfully with a Quickjack 3500? https://www.quickjack.com/car-lift-s...-car-lift.html Any opinion or experience is welcome. |

I thought this was going to be some sort of self pleasuring device. Sorely disappointed......

QuickJack's specs on lifting point spread says 50.5"...so your good there. Think you may want to consider their BL-5000slx though. Your vehicle's ('08 328i) curb weight was listed by Road&Track at 3386lbs. That's close to the 3500's max (plus a look at a '12 328i says it's an even closer 3412 lbs). For the $115 difference between the 3500 and the 5000, and the 60" vs 50.5 lifting point spread, it might be the better choice.
I hang over at the Garage Journal forum. Take a look over there. A good number of users have had good comments about the QuickJack. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/...7318&showall=1 |

I have the quickjack. I would buy the 5000 rated jack which is what I have. I like it but if you have room in your garage you may want to look at something like the maxjack. I choose the longer version of the jack for my e90. The longer version is the way to go and the 5000 pound rated unit

Maxjack is a little bit too much, while not being the real deal. I will look in the Quickjack 5000, thank you Ricky |
