Review: Great product for the money. I highly recommend. - item matched the description well. i was replacing a backboard that was 40 years old on a square pole. I new it was going to take a bit of effort to make it fit my existing pole and arms. i also had to replace some rusted pieces from my existing setup. I am not a great handyman, so it did take a bit of time to figure things out and then backtrack when i realized things were not lined up or needed to be modified. I am very pleased with the unit and its quality. I am average size and found the backboard a bit heavy and awkward for one person. Though i managed, i would highly recommend 2 people to install. Great product for the money.
Review: Perfect replacement backboard - Excellent replacement backboard and hoop. Replaced an original 44 inch backboard with this 48 inch wide backboard with almost no problems. The only issue that makes you curse though is trying to get the bar to connect with the very thin clip rings on either end. You need to pull the plastic cover over the rings in order to get them to connect.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with a huffy sports  8406sr universal mounting kit?**
A: The Lifetime universal mount kit is clearly designed to fit the exact location of the two vertical supports on the back of the backboard, and fitting that was tough enough.  So I doubt that another 'universal' kit would match the Lifetime design without some tinkering.

**Q: Will this work on an angled roof**
A: The garage roof...I can send a pic...or I will just make my own bracket I guess

**Q: Will this work if i have an existing lifetime pole and frame? all i need to replace is the backboard. will this cone with everything i need?**
A: That depends on your existing items.  This backboard does not include the mounting kit.  If you already have a mounting kit on your existing pole you will want to make sure it is compatible since we have made several kinds. The easiest way to determine compatibility is to reach out to our basketball department and they can help you.  You may need to email pictures of your existing system.  They can be reached at 800-225-3865.

**Q: What's the difference between the 44 inch and the 48 inch? Is it just the size, or are there construction differences?**
A: Since I only bought the one I couldn’t answer that question but my guess is that they’re the same.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great setup
*by K***K on February 10, 2024*

This backboard even makes our house look better. The quality was great and pairing it with the mounting kit was perfect. I would highly recommend this combo kit for anyone that’s want a really nice looking basketball setup. I did not try any of the other mounting configurations, but the roof mount was easy and says it supports wall and pole mount in addition to my roof installation.
