In this case a three or four wire cage with 36 inch spreaders cut for 80 meters might be the easiest solution for you and allow for feeding at ground level. However the impact of the tower might result in requiring the cage to be a bit shorter than normal.

A fourth idea you might consider is to simply use your tower to support
a 1/4 wave vertical wire for 80 meters, fed against the same radials you
use on 160 meters. This may be your easiest and most effective solution.
