[TowerTalk] rohn 45 leg bolts

[Daron J. Wilson]

I think they mean coarse threads (NC).  I've gone to a marine supplier
and purchased them all before, though I usually end up with 2 1/2" bolts
since those are standard and cause no problem with the installation.  I
always order all galvanized bolts/lockwashers/nuts.  My 'spares' are
limited to the one is the very bottom of the bucket, usually used to
replace the two or three that manage to slip from my tired fingers.

Good Luck!
