Hi Tony,
If you haven't already fashioned a rotator plate to ride the track, IIX
makes one for pole mounting called the RM-2 Pole/Building Mount -

I have a old EZ-way tower (RBX-50) and NO WAY would I

Charlie is correct . i have a 40 foot pole the power company
installed a few years back when they put in the drop . they installed
the drop going under my extented 70 ft tower with a 4 ele quad.. when
i got home i was amazed they had done this.. could not crank the
tower down. called the power company they set a new pole and moved
the drop. but left the old pole. told me i could have it.. well i am
looking at putting barn door track up one side and a wench on the
other. and putting my spare CL-36 on it. finding a saddle type pulley
has been a problem to go on top of the pole. i think i have found a
good one at grangers. that will bolt to the top of the pole but i
will have to make a cable keeper to go over the top so the cable will
not come out if slack gets into in some how. they also have a small 4
pulley trolley assmy that will ride in the barn door track. and will
mount to a mast plate for the rotor.. now to find some heavy duty
barn door track in the area ..
