> I have a related question. Can I use an concrete existing base with a
different set of anchor bolts? I would like to upgrade my T-base to one
with tilt over attach points. Is it possible to remove a boly and epoxy in
new ones?
You bet. It's been covered many times. Use a hand grinder to chop the
old bolts off. Rent a roto hammer with hollow, diamond tipped drill bits.
Drill the holes. Put construction epoxy in the hole (it's stronger than the
concrete), put the new bolts in the hole and Bob's your uncle.
Use a jig or something to hold the new bolts in place as they cure and
you'll be all set.
