I have two sets of Rhino ramps, so after jacking up the fronts (after driving onto homemade wood ramps), I slide a ramp under each wheel. Then I repeat for the back.
Sounds like I need to get the adapters, lol. "Most tedious car to jack up" .....wuuuut? Oh man, this is a dream to jack up compared to most cars. Center OFFICIAL jack points in BOTH the front and the rear? Extremely uncommon. So many cars you're left putting jack stands on the pinch welds, and they'll bend a little 7 times out of 10.
Damn dude thanks for this. I've been jacking mine up by those stupid plastic jack points even though I know I shouldn't be. Where did you get that circular pad for your jack?
Thanks man for the vid! I am trying to jack from the rear diff but the fins keep coming in contact with the arm before the pad can reach the diff. Any recommendations on how to clear the diff fins? I have the Daytona 3 ton low profile long reach jack so not sure why the arm is making contact before the pad. Appreciate the help 🤙
Man you must be SLAMMED because that’s still a lot of clearance with a normal lowered setup. I would just drive up on a couple 2x4s. Get you almost 2 extra inches. If that’s still not enough then just figure something thicker to drive up on.
In theory, it should be able to. You’d still jack from the same side points but unless you have the appropriate adapter, you’d risk damaging those plastic posts.
As far as I know, most/all BMWs use the same adapter. If you already have some, just stick them in the post under the car and see if it's the correct one.
Yes, if the car is not in park, it would likely be rolling off before you had a chance to jack it up. As for the e-brake, people typically recommend to have it activated.
strongly recomend driving the front wheels onto couple of pieces of wood. Makes it MUCH easier to jack up
Definitely a thing 👍🏽
Beautiful video and clear and great instructions I definitely hit the LIKE on this ❤
Glad I could help!
Thank's Bro, I hesitated to do it, but you gave me confidence.
You’re welcome!
Great videos. I just got a a91 Blue edition, love the car.
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it for a long time.

Solid video, thanks brother!
Appreciate it!

I place a wood block in the floor Jack's cradle to make sure that the diff fins are not contacted. Be carefully and take your time.
Thanks for the video! This is exactly what I needed. Have you seen any good DIY options for the jack stand adaptors?
This is what I use th-cam.com/video/KRAADNsjIQM/w-d-xo.html
Hi there, had a quick question , will you be able to tell me what is the exact jack do you use (brand) and what stands do you use as well ?
Stands: amzn.to/36LrDVF
The jack is some Harbor Freight one I bought years ago.
Great video Hai. Any of these jack stand adapters for a toyota/lexus do you know?
Not that I know of. All the Toyotas I own/owned just have/had reinforced jack locations and no specific adapters needed.
Great video. What floor jack do you recommend? New subscriber here. I have a 2022.
I've been using these for a few years: th-cam.com/video/lPGvUwM6MTw/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Hai. Is the centre of jack adapter in front directly under that bolt?
Are you asking where to put the jack up front?
Clean👍🏿
Thank you!
Can the supra be jacked on the side of the vehicle using a scissor jack for example?
In theory, it should be able to. You’d still jack from the same side points but unless you have the appropriate adapter, you’d risk damaging those plastic posts.
@@HaiTran thanks for the reply! Will have to ask Toyota if they stock them. Unless it's the same adapters used for a z4 or another bmw?
As far as I know, most/all BMWs use the same adapter. If you already have some, just stick them in the post under the car and see if it's the correct one.
I’m assuming the car is in park? Is the e-brake on or off?
Yes, if the car is not in park, it would likely be rolling off before you had a chance to jack it up. As for the e-brake, people typically recommend to have it activated.
Have you thought of or looked into the Quick Jack BL-5000SLX?
I was just looking at them again. I just don't have the space for it. One day!
Car is too low that my uncles equipment can't do it
Drive up on some blocks to get extra clearance.
But what if the car is lowered with a front lip installed and you cant fit the entire jack under the car😑
Find something like a 2x4 to drive up on to get some clearance.
Sounds like a personal problem bro
A couple 2x6s work to get a low pro Jack under. I have an A90 with H&R springs
Or get some low profile ramps to gain clearance for the floor jack. Cheers
@@realitycheck469Or make your own with 6x6 lumbar and a band saw as I did.
Now I know
Enjoy 👍🏽
