Bryan,
I had this very question last year when I was getting the parts together
for my 140' rotating 55g tower.
Gerald, K5GW, quickly set me straight. While more expensive I ordered
and installed the proper anchors, GAC3455.
Do not use the GAR30's.

Anyone using the GAR30 anchor rods for a 55g tower at 120-140ft? I see the
GAC3455 rods are typically the spec but have noticed a couple of tower install
photos on the net of people using the GAR's with the 5 hole equalizer plates
for 55g towers. The load rating on the GAR's 7,330 versus the 3455's of 17,670
is a huge difference so just might answer the question for me! Thanks for any
feedback in advance!
