I have a TX-472 tower that I bought used. I called a local bolt firm
that caters to the local maritime and construction trade, told them the
bolt specs and they said "no problem". The first time they charges me
$16 for three bolts (and nuts, washers, and lockwashers). The second
time (8 years later) the price went up to $34 or so, but I had the bolts
made 4' long, with 6" of thread.
They also supplied ASTM-A36 bolts and nuts for mounting the tower to the
base fixture. Any place that deals with construction that puts up road
signs should be able to help.
