G30 Jacking Points Distance

Quick question fellas.

Can anyone quickly measure the distance between the jacking points? Red line in the pic. Considering a Quick Jack and want to make sure the rails are long enough.

Appreciate it.

Edit: I guess I don't have enough posts to post a pic?

In past threads on this topic….the 6000ELX quckjack model fits the approx 74” distance between the G30 jack pads.

6000ELX is the only QJ that works out of the box.

Thank you Q! Nice to see you still active on the forums. Remember you back from the Bimmerforum days in late 2000s.

Yep, I’m still hanging with the BMW brand…not that impressed with some of the latest design direction…but been down this road before when the last E chassis BMWs hit with the “Bangle-butts” & “Dame Edna headlight designs”.
