E36 Compact Sill Stands

Hi Guys

Looking to make or purchase a set of sill stands

Question I have is to those people who already use them, did you make the stands to fit the hole in the sills or modify the holes to fit the stands

Hope you understand what I mean, the original jack isn't round and there are 2 what I can only describe as lumps inside the sill tubes

I think anybody familiar with E36 Compacts will know what I mean

Many thanks

Peter

I have made my own set and use existing holes, just be fearfull as its been know for them to rot on earlier ones. Never had any probs with mine though

Ive made my self a set and ive made set for Cliff's Compact as well, if you notice in the last pic ive also made a jig to make further sets up, they utilise the std BMW Jackin points and also the majority of standard 2 - 3 Ton trolley jacks will lift to an adequate height to fit the sill stands.
