I believe U.S. Tower no longer supplies J-Bolts for their tower bases. The
bolts for my 72' tubular crankup, received a couple of months ago, consisted
of four 1" x 24" bolts threaded at both ends, each with a 1" nut screwed on
and welded to one end. Probably an engineering change to reduce costs. I
wasn't exactly delighted, but it's hard to imagine that those bolts are
going to loosen or pull out of the concrete.
