How to lift your X3

Follow these steps for a safe, stable lift on the trail.

1
Choose where you want to lift

Locate the recommended chassis tube or suspension component closest to the corner you need to access.

2
Lift with control

Position the jack securely and adjust for your terrain and conditions. On soft or uneven ground, clear or compact the surface or use a larger base for added stability.

3
Repair and keep moving

Complete the repair, lower the vehicle carefully, and confirm everything is secure before getting back on the trail.

What you need to lift the X3

A compact trail jack with at least 18 inches of lift and a 2,000 lb. rating is recommended for the X3. For repairs on the trail, place a cooler, toolbox, spare tire, rock, or other solid object beneath the vehicle as a secondary support before working.

NOTE: Never place your body under a vehicle lifted on the trail without proper jack stands.

X3 lift point FAQs

The primary lift points are the lower A-arms, trailing arms and the skid plate.

Watch the video matching your jack for more details.
Yes, with the correct jack and attachment, the X3 can be lifted from the lower A-arms. Watch the video matching your AGM jack to see the safest lift points and how each interfaces with the X3.
The X3 weighs roughly 1,600- 2,200 lbs. depending on the model and setup. A jack rated for at least 2,000 lbs. is recommended, especially for off-camber lifts where more load may shift onto one corner of the vehicle.
For a quick tire change, a jack alone may be enough. But if the vehicle will remain lifted or any part of your body will be under the vehicle, always use jack stands or a solid secondary support.
A compact trail jack designed for SXSs and uneven terrain is ideal. Look for one that provides stable lifting and can be securely stored on your X3.
