Only  thing 
I would recommend is replacing the tower bolts every eight to ten  years 
as they will deteriorate due to galvanic action.  This is  possible, even 
with the tower in place, as there are two sets of bolts at  each leg joint.

And this problem can be pretty much eliminated by used stainless steel  bolts.
