Thanks for all the comments on this.   Looks like I should be OK.  I
have a bunch of old power pole pieces that Ill put under the sections as
it rolls out.

I now need to find someone who is willing to come to Reno to help
recable the tower.  There is significant rust on the cables..but the
rest of the tower looks fine other than a few bolts that Ill wire down
and paint with cold galvanizing.

Thanks...

Has anyone extended an HDX-589 while horizontal the ground?

 

Any potential damage by doing this as long as the sections are supported
with blocks while on the ground?

 

Thanks...
