Take the danger and aggravation out of lifting your BMW with the ECS Tuning Jack Pad Adapter. Designed to fit the head of a standard floor jack, the adapter has a rectangular head that firmly engages the chassis jack pads.

Massive rotors, multiple-piston brakes, and advanced pads are glamorous, eye-catching upgrades to your vehicle.

ECS has an array of solutions to tighten up your braking system, including a Power Brake Bleeder, multiple synthetic Brake Fluid options, and a premium Schwaben Brake Bleeder Wrench.

Lifting your E90 has never been safer or easier than it is with hydraulic jack head adapters from ECS Tuning.

Buy the adapter, individual pads, or kits that include lift adapter with pad set.
