Engine Support Bar and Extended T30 Tool for DIY Rod Bearings

Hey all,

I replaced the rod bearing in my 08 E92 M3 in my garage about a month ago now.

I'm looking to sell the engine support bar and extended 3/8 T30 bit.

Torx is $8.00 from Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R5BSRL5...roduct_details

HF Engine Support Bar $80 from Harbor Freight
https://www.harborfreight.com/1000-l...bar-96524.html

Both for $70

You should keep them and start offering your skills up to people who want to get their rod bearings done!! Could be a nice little side hustle!

I honestly thought of it. The price for an independent shop replacing them was quite a bit higher than expected.

Hi.
1. Still available?
2. Is the torx bit used for the bearing replacement?
3. Shipping included in the $70?

I'm going to be tackling the rob bearing job shortly. I'm interested, and I live just a bit south of seattle. If youre anywhere near kent it could be worth grabbing these from you, vs buying them from the same places...
