Rotator Plates

What I did, but haven't installed yet, is use a standard Rohn45 rotor 
plate, and drill holes for a TB3 thrust bearing to mount on it. 
As the rotor plate is relatively thin, I don't think it would take 
any vertical forces, but should work well for lateral force.

Question for the group - Can anyone come up with a way for me to 
install by myself? I'd prefer not to raise the mast to put the 
second plate in, but it seems that the rotor plate is a tight fit 
inside the tower, and isn't likely just to "slide up."
