We used to have a small pump up cylinder jack with a couple of flat bars welded to top and bottom just  for this.
Plenty of 'lift' in just the right spot.

Got a few questions for the group
    Is there some tool to use to get stuborn Rohn 25/45 sections apart?
    I'm going to get a new climbing harness,fall arrest and postioning 
straps in a day or 2 from our reflectors sponser.My question is this;when 
you are on the top plate of your tower and all you have above you is your 
mast,how do you "tie" off to that.I thought about taking a couple of 
U-clamps and a link from a LARGE chain and clamping that.Anybody else have 
ideas?
    Is there a tool that helps get stuborn Rohn 25/45 together?       Thanks
