[TowerTalk] How to fix crooked Rohn 45G short base?

[Phil]

Does Rohn offer flat bottom and top plates for 45G?

If so, buy one of each, put the top plate on what you
already have in the ground and bolt the bottom plate
to it with shims to get it plumb.

good luck, 73, Phil  W5BVB

That seems like the easiest option, but I worry that (depending on how close the new holes are to the existing holes) that will weaken the tower right where the majority of the bending stress is focused. I admit I’m naive about these things, though.
