It has the lugs welded to the tower and base hinge plate to accept the crank over mechanism.
However , i do not have these parts installed .

I used my truck to stand it up on the hinge plate

antenna and mast are not that heavy....one man can handle it if the wind not blowing !!!!!!!!!!...... the tower is a different story...you will need mechanical means

I stood the retracted tower up with my truck..
then put the antenna together on the ground with the mast pipe in place.
then hauled it all up with a JLG and dropped it into place.....and bolted it down

I did the entire project by myself.... minus the hole digging and concrete pouring

wow i would have thought you would have needed some help putting that up. i needed help putting up my antron but maybe thats because i used steel drain pipe. 2x 10' pieces with the steel threaded coupler in the middle to hold them together. STRONG AS HELL. take care round the dome Mr. Gunslinger
What are you going to run inside the base. or are you just going to hook up your AC suburban to it. THAT WOULD WOMP.
anyways take care round that Big Star
