    Height of the E53 scissor jack

    Hey-

    I've never posted here in the X5/X6 forum but I have a question if anyone would be kind enough. I'm trying to figure out the height of the E53 scissor jack when its fully retracted to see if it can fit under my lowered car. My factory jack broke since it was one of the flimsy ones with a plastic pad that BMW supplied.

    Thanks for any help!

    I already have a heavy floor jack but I just want this one to throw in the trunk for just in case.

    I have too much junk in the back right now...but unless yourcar is less than 5 inches off the ground...

    Here's a link to some images of the e53 jack: http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Jack/ES184741/

    I assume you mean #11 in the diagram:
