High Lifter states the tool has mounting provisions for machines with 4-lug, 5-lug and 6-lug bolt patterns. That is the widest coverage in their alignment range and the reason to pick this kit over the 4-lug-only version. Check your own hubs before ordering rather than assuming from the machine's model name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this measure camber, or only toe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth. The two included tape measures let you measure toe directly across the plates, and the included magnetic digital angle finder reads camber off the plate face. Toe and camber are separate angles that need separate measurements, and this kit gives you a tool for each rather than making you infer one from the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I have to take the wheels off to use it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The plates bolt to the hub and are secured with your own lug nuts, so the wheel comes off to fit them. That is the trade this design makes on purpose: measuring from the hub face gives a reading that a flexible sidewall and a knobby tread cannot, which is the whole reason to use a plate instead of leaning a straightedge against a tire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it on the rear of my machine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Each plate bolts to a hub, and nothing about the design is specific to the front axle, so you can check rear toe and rear camber the same way — provided the rear bolt pattern is one of the four supported. On many machines the rear pattern matches the front, but confirm rather than assume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is this different from the 4-lug High Lifter Alignment Kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBolt-pattern coverage, and that is the whole difference worth caring about. This tool adds 5x4.5in and 6x5.5in on top of the 4-lug patterns; the other kit is 4\/137 and 4\/156 only. Both include the steel plates, two tape measures and the magnetic digital angle finder. If you run a 5- or 6-lug machine, or expect to, this is the one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it work on an ATV as well as a UTV?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works on any ATV or UTV whose hubs use one of the four supported bolt patterns. High Lifter describes the tool as being for ATV and UTV alignment generally.

Rather than sell a gauge that leans on a tire, High Lifter built a plate that bolts to the hub, and shipped it with the two tape measures and the angle finder you actually need to use it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSet Your Camber and Toe Before Your Next Ride\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore you order, confirm the bolt pattern on your hubs — this tool fits by pattern, and 4x137mm, 4x156mm, 5x4.5in and 6x5.5in are the four it supports.
