There's a fellow making copies of the Rohn plates. Seems like he is in
Wisconsin.

Does Rohn offer flat bottom and top plates for 45G?
If so, buy one of each, put the top plate on what you
already have in the ground and bolt the bottom plate
to it with shims to get it plumb.
good luck, 73, Phil W5BVB

Hi guys,
Due to the property lines and terrain I don’t have room to pour
another one next to the existing one, so jackhammering out the
current one may be the only option.
Some others have suggested drilling new bolt holes to make the first
section plumb. That seems like the easiest option, but I worry that
(depending on how close the new holes are to the existing holes) that
will weaken the tower right where the majority of the bending stress
is focused. I admit I’m naive about these things, though.
