This really works ~ I've been using that method for 33yrs ~ once you
get the wheel up
on hub you just have to turn the wheel & the hub & one set of holes
soon line up & you pop in
a bolt. I suppose there could be some wheels with bigger center holes
that might not work &
I only have had to do it on a 2WD so I don't know if it works on a Sync.
