Front Center Jacking Point

Is there a good jack point on the front center of an X5M? I'm installing my springs tomorrow and would like to jack up both sides at the same time and use jack stands at the factory jack points. Can the front diff be used?

Thanks,
Paul

Don't use the diff! It is not strong enough.
I don't know anything about a jacking point..

U can always use 2 jacks or tower stands that's the route I always go while I'm doing suspension work.
Safety first brow

There should be a flat center jack point just behind the front skid plate
