Am I correct that the two ends are the leg diameters not the swaged diameters? If so, a simple anything steel solid rod turned to the leg id of 1.125" minus 0.005" clearance (1.120") and drilled for the bolts will join the sections.

Amazing but my tower erector put the last section of Rohn 25G with the
gender wrong and coupled with a special adapter to Rohn 45 below.  Now I
am trying to put up a Rohn 25G top section but the genders are the same
size.  Duh.  It would a major project to flip the wrong gender Rohn 25G
around. So I am wondering if a set of (3) coupling sleeves are available
anywhere.  I check both the Amerite and the Rohn catalog but came up empty.
These sleeves would be the same size as the diameter of a base plate.
But welding two base plates or bolting them together is a way out but
expensive.   Any suggestions would be appreciated.
