>From the looks of that bearing, one grease job should last about 2000 years
at the rate it will be turned on a tower. <grin>

Notice the grease fittings?  This is not a "no lube / lifetime greased /
etc"  bearing, someone is going to have to climb the tower periodically with
a grease gun.  That might be a point against using it.  BOTOH, it sure is
cheap!
