I am far from being a tower expert however I once installed a 160' Rohn 65
tower on an old crankup tower base and I just used anchor concrete from Home
Depot to set the pier pin in an oversized hole.  This is different than
epoxying bolts for a free standing tower where you need maximum adhesion.
The base worked perfectly for a number of years until I moved.

I think I have arranged most of the Rohn 45 that I need and have the
concrete 
base and pier pin. I need to drill a hole for the pier pin and lost the name
of 
the epoxy (Quikcrete brand?). I know it sets in about 2 days.
Thanks to everyone for the help.
