The 12v pump draws a lot of current, so you need good jump leads to connect the pump to the battery of a running car.

I’ve got the largest quick jacks as they were on offer a Costco, I just use a 7ah battery to raise lower.

Also stole the axle off an old wheelie bin, I push this through the bottom pivot point to move them about and remove before use.

I got mine from the same place. I find the fitted wheels are ok for just now. I think they will break at some time, but I'll cross that bridge when I need to. According to the packing list, it was supposed to come with spare wheels, but they weren't in my pack.

I measured an 80A current draw when I tested mine

Got myself the quick jacks,easy to set up and use

Hello Jon,

Got myself the quick jacks,easy to set up and use

Hello Jon,
i have just recently purchased a 3.0si E86, I have been looking for a blue one like yours for a while but to no avail, I had almost given up when I spotted Grey one with extended Beige leather. One lady owner and a fully documented Sytner BMW 36,000 miles HISTORY.
one thing I don’t like is the 108 wheels, I’m looking to change and I noticed yours on a post, I do like the CSL alloys and also MV4’s, are yours 18” or bigger?
Many thanks
Dakar (John)

Thanks for all your thoughts and advise, much appreciated.
Have decided to go the quickjack route, saw they were doing a bundle offer which includes the 240v and various other additions. Should be delivered tomorrow.
Thanks again. - guess what i will be doing rest of this week !!
