    Sorry, no the model 90698 Lifetime Adjustable In-Ground 54-Inch Polycarbonate Basketball Hoop does not come with a 4 inch Ground Sleeve. The inground assembly for the pole can be seen in the assembly manual. Assembly manuals are available for download on Lifetime.com under the model number. This also does not come with a Pole Pad or the Ball Return. Thank you for your inquiry.

                does the shatterguard backboard material look as good as glass? will it fade or discolor. glass version of 54 has sold it which means it was more desired I assumed

                Answer This Question

                The polycarbonate material on the backboards can fade or discolor over time, but it depends also on the climate that the system is in. Maintenance like wiping the backboard can also be done to resist this.

                    Mostly good
                    Solid build. Instruction manual was missing 2 steps, fortunately I watched the video instructions as well so I caught it.

                      The installation was easy with the directions simple to follow. The only problem I had was one bolt in the height adjustment handle did not line up exactly so it took a while to get it adjusted to make it fit

                        Decent hoop
                        The instructions are missing steps 4.7 & 4.8. It makes the install process confusing. Had to look up the missing steps via the video resource.

                          Clean looking hoop, good quality
                          Assembly went well, you will need an extra hand. Hoop looks very nice
