I just did this w/ a US Tower TX 472 MDP . . . which has a poitive pull-down.
In fact, I pd the UST guys to do it - too hard for me. The issues are many, but
if a pos pull down you have a loaded spring, so come-alongs are needed to take
the pressure off. That said, if your tower does not have the pull-down tension,
go for it. - Alan K9MBQ
