- Jim, Thanks for clarifying. I called a local fab shop this morning and they will send someone out to me to look at at the base and come up with a plan. Since time is an issue, I will go with the cold

- Rich, I replaced a medium size 71ft tower with a heavy duty 71ft tower several years ago. None of the existing six 1" bolts matched with the new tower base plate, 12 bolt holes. In a sense, I made ad

- John, I wanted all the strength I could get using the adapter plates. The original tower base plate had only 6 - 1" mounting bolts, while the new tower plate has 12. Besides, I did not know mathemati

- That makes sense. The original poster NJ0F was changing to a smaller tower where an adaptor plate with no extra bolts should be adequate (if properly designed). John KK9A John, I wanted all the stren
