Jacking up a lowered car

[MarqE36]

Ok so how do you jack up your lowered 3-series? I have Eibach 1.8" drop on my 325i and m3 bodykit to make it even lower. How do I get the front end up in the air so I can work under the car?

The easy way to do it is to make some drive on mini ramps out of one or two 2x4s depending on how much height you need to gain. If 1-1/2" lift is enough, put a 2' piece of 2x4 in front of each tire and drive on. IF you need more lift, use two 2x4s (a 36" and a 18") nailed together.

Or you may be able to buy a low profile floor jack that will clear the underside.

I have a low profile aluminum jack that just fits under the front end of my roadster. It is light weight and strong. Got it at Costco for under $100.00.
