Small Emergency flat tire jack?
A friend of mine has replaced his EMTs. He has already purchased the Z06 flat tire repair kit, but also needs a simple jack.
I know I have seen one here, but I have searched and searched the forums with no luck. Can someone point me in the direction of where to find this jack?:

BMW or Mercedes is correct. I have one that came with my 325i and it works great.

It is very long, I think almost 2 years but you can get one from him for
$50.00.
I hope this helps

Anyone have a link to the plug kit that was posted about a week ago. It was highly recommended. I'm planning to with non runflats soon and this thread would be good to bookmark!

Jeff,
If you get one of Frederick’s jacks, be very careful with it. Only use it on a very coarse surface. I tried using mine on my concrete garage floor, and it shot out from under the car and took a chunk of fiberglass out of my rocker panel. Luckily the rear wheel was still on the car at the time. It might be okay for use on an asphalt surface but it doesn't grip worth a damn on concrete floors.

If you pick up a small rubber floor mat from Pep Boys, ($1.95) you put it between the Lift and the concrete floor and you can use it anywhere. I use these mats between a plastic wheel chock and the steel ramps on my lift so the chocks won't ever slip out. Best,

Good advice!
