What are you using to support the back of your X5M? Or is that one floor jack supporting the driver's side of your vehicle?

Shows me that the F85 chassis is a stiff one. Interesting share.

I wouldn't default to doing to mine but I tend to be particular with my machines.

The X5M is a very rigid chassis, to be able to jack it up from one point.
