I have a old EZ-way tower (RBX-50) and NO WAY would I
use any kind of plastic/nylon pulley on that lift system!!!

Charlie is correct . i have a 40 foot pole the power company
installed a few years back when they put in the drop . they
installed the drop going under my extented 70 ft tower with a 4 ele
quad.. when i got home i was amazed they had done this.. could not
crank the tower down. called the power company they set a new pole
and moved the drop. but left the old pole. told me i could have it..
well i am looking at putting barn door track up one side and a wench
on the other. and putting my spare CL-36 on it. finding a saddle
type pulley has been a problem to go on top of the pole. i think i
have found a good one at grangers. that will bolt to the top of the
pole but i will have to make a cable keeper to go over the top so
the cable will not come out if slack gets into in some how. they
also have a small 4 pulley trolley assmy that will ride in the barn
door track. and will mount to a mast plate for the rotor.. now to
find some heavy duty barn door track in the area ..
