BMW E36 Jack Point / Bashbar

With this E36 rear jack point you jack up the entire rear of a BMW E36 in one go. You put the jack under the central point at the back of the car and both rear wheels come off the ground at the same time. That saves a lot of time when changing tyres and during maintenance on the rear axle.

This is especially useful on drift cars and lowered E36s, because with an ordinary jack you can hardly get under the sills any more. The jack point consists of two parts, so the car looks normal on public roads.

Installation and delivery

The E36 rear jack point is mounted under the original rear beam. To let the central jacking point come out, the diffuser under the rear bumper has to be shortened slightly in the middle. Otherwise the car is not drastically modified, so the whole thing looks normal on the road.

After fitting, first jack the car up carefully and check that everything is secure before you start working underneath. Always put a jacked-up car on axle stands as well. Use a garage jack with a flat or matching head, so that the jacking point cannot slip off.

You will find more protection and jacking points in the bashbars and jack points category.

One jack in the middle, both rear wheels off the ground: that is how you change tyres in a few minutes.

Why choose this E36 rear jack point?

At a drift event you often spend more time jacking than actually changing tyres. With this E36 rear jack point you have a fixed, central spot that the jack fits straight under. Because it consists of two parts and sits under the original beam, your E36 stays inconspicuous on public roads.

Hardly. The jack point consists of two parts precisely so that the car looks normal on public roads.

Why is it also called a bashbar?

What jack do I need?
