Excellent idea attaching them to the receiver. I have four of the pucks and it still is a pain trying to keep them up while putting the jack stands under them. Lower the Jack, raise the jack etc. until you get it right. You eliminated the problem. Thanks.

@serkanyilmaz4551 5 лет назад

Amazing fix Tommy. I always hated moving the jack back & forth to adjust the jack pad. Started smiling when I saw your fix.

@anshus2395 20 дней назад

I saw this video a long time ago and found it very helpful. Lately I've been thinking there's an even better way to do this. Your video inspired me to try my own solution. The rubber pads didn't work for me as the ones I bought had way too much play in them, but I also had 4 metal jackpads already. Aha moment this past weekend: VELCRO. Added some velcro strips to the inside of the adapter and the top of the metal pucks and now i can stick them up when i need to jack the car up, but don't have to have them on the car all the time!

@TheCheesemonkeys1 5 лет назад

so simple yet an amazing idea!

@grizzle273463 Год назад

What a brilliant idea. I bought the hocky pucks and tried it today. I broke the plastic clips on the support pad. Off to Amazon to buy new ones (which will never need be removed) in the future. Thanks Tommy.

I just cut four hockey pucks to the rough dimensions of the jack pads (e.g. the ones all over Amazon), making each a bit "taller" than those (with the rectangular portion larger, so it's sure to contact the top of the pocket on the frame rail. Drilled a small hole in the short ends of each pocket and screwed them in place with 2 small screws. They're now fixed in place, and invisible. Love it.

@drreid333 4 года назад

Great vid. If your jack stands are like mine, the tops are an upside down arch as seen from the side and rectangular as seen from above. I'd suggest trimming a little off the round part of the adapters, parallel to the long side of the rectangular part so that the adapter fits down into the top of the jack stand instead of resting on top of it.

Do you permanently attach your hockey pucks to your lift pads?? If not, then the tire center will destroy your lift pads in short order. Hence, the reason for the video in the first place. haha

How about removing jack pad ? Under jack pads there is solid metal and you can just jack it without any jack adapter I think

Don't they sell milled down hockey pucks in all E90 forums? Have them for years... And I wouldn't want to go any thicker on the mounts permanently, nice way to rip them off if you drive lowered.

They do sell them but this is more of a permanent solution.

Hmm aluminum circle with rubber attached costume made. Did it on mine held by one bolt in middle. You won’t have the wear problem easier to get to and you could even color it for fast eye catch….. your idea works but again those things would need maintenance. My idea won’t and even attached extra ones like one in the middle of car. Faster to get two wheels off the ground.

@keiths5727 5 лет назад

Use hockey pucks on the floor jack and stands. That way you don’t attach anything to your car. Simple and a lot cheaper than 40.00 a pop. Yes it will work on conventional jack stands. Or buy some jack stands that have flat tops from Esco. I applaud your effort but not necessary to go through that much trouble. As far as worrying about damage at a shop, no BMW dealer is going to cause damage and really how often is an independent shop going to be lifting your car and causing damage they aren’t responsible to replace. For you DYI’er do you homework. Hockey pucks also don’t sustain any permanent indentation like your pads display. Any sporting goods place has them for a few dollars each. Buy the practice pucks as they are softer. Not my idea but I use them all the time.

Tommy you should really consider the liability you will create for yourself by making these and selling them to the public.

I certainly hope you don’t sell these. Cobbling this together with parts from unknown vendors on Amazon and then saying oh well if it goes wrong I’ll hide behind my LLC. If the viewers want to try your ideas, let them, but don’t sell them the parts to do it.

You do realise those relievers on the bottom of the car are designed for almost any scissors jack to slot into and jack the car up, right? The idea is that any idiot can put it in, jack up the car and not have it fall on them because it slipped off. It's not BMW being sly trying to make you buy things.
