You will need to create a new toolplane for the 2nd side using the Axis Combination/Spindle Origin button:

Right Click anywhere in the Planes List under "Spindle Origin" and select "New toolplane". You can set output to G55 by selecting Work Offset 1:

Then just select the created toolplane for each operation using the Axis Combination/Spindle Origin button. There could be an easier way but this way works!

Go to your Lathe option, Make sure that you have your first side to one level, then when you are ready to flip to the second side have other level ready for your second side, been a while since I use mastercam. Now I use NX Siemens
