Default Jacking Pucks

I often see molded, permanent jacking pucks offered for sale on the forum. They look exactly like the ones BMW used on 318s between 92-98. They can be found at Rock Auto for less than $9 each. Look for a URO part number 51711960752. I just purchased a set of 4 for less than $38.

I use a set of BMW jacking pucks on my car. Been using them for seven years and have not had any problems with them. They snap in place and have not ever come loose, so you have them ready should you ever need to lift the car.

I bought mine 13 yrs ago--still in place--for $24 and have used them for lifting the vette over 1000 times. By lifting only one side you can get the car high enough to change both front and rear tires. Really makes the job easier when you are continually changing from Hoosiers to street tires.
