Well, who knows how old this tower is. . so I don't have any paperwork....
the bolts are nearly immaculate !
I am just looking for a solid reference that when/if I reinstall this thing
(repaired) that I put the bolts facing out.
Is it an old wives tale, or ? (HI IH)
Thanks

The bolt installation procedure is contained on the tower assembly
instructtions included with a new tower...
I checked online...and yes, there are pictures of the towers but no
assembly instrucions...
Anyway, have a look at a bolt...especially the shank...
As for A325 bolts...the Delhi supplied bolts are nowhere close to this
spec..
I can break one of the Delhi's that has seized up...never do it with an
A325...not with hand tools on a tower ...
