[TowerTalk] Rohn 25g Tower Jacks

Hi,

I purchased one last year when I helped a friend take down an old 65' stick of Rohn 45.  It worked great!  I had no problem jacking the sections apart; I am not sure you need more than one jack.  I jacked on each leg sequentially while my buddy kept tension on the gin pole.  All sections came apart with ease - a much simpler process than I have had in the past with small hydraulic jacks, 2x4s, etc on Rohn 25.  One thing - tie a short rope with a snap hook to the bottom of the tool so you won't drop it.

In retrospect I was a little cheap.  I should have gotten the version with the hooks for pulling tower legs together.  It would have probably made tower erection as easy as disassembly.  No - I don't want to sell mine, but I do heartily endorse the product.  I picked mine up from the manufacturer's web site.
