I put up a used HDBX-40 in 2010.

Shows the some of the correct factory legs.
They are a stamped sheet-metal unit, roughly in the form of an "L" with
the "foot" at the bottom.
At the top, it is stamped to match the tower legs and overlaps.
I opted to suspend the first section of tower over the hole and guy it,
then had the concrete poured.
I climbed and used a gin pole to stack the tower to 40', but when it
came time to put the Sommer DJ2UT XP708 on top, I hired a crane.
(Rotator is ground mounted and the antennas are mounted to the 40+' mast
to remove the "rivet tearing" tendency with a long-boom antenna - the
used PST has since been replaced with a new PST2051)

It looks like maybe R&L sells HDBX stuff as well as noted here:
http://www.randl.com/shop/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=HDBX
These guys also have a full line up here:

I put up a HDBX-48 a few years ago as close to Rohn specs as I could (It's
still up)
You can see the story of that job here:
