T2X etc are four 1/4-20 bolts in a 3" square pattern.
Yaesu 2800 specifies four m8 x 1.25mm bolts in a 84mm sq (3.307") a 119mm dia bolt circle Orion2800 is four 3/8-24 bolts in a 3" sq. but you need to check the fit in the tower.

Some drilling required.

I'm investigating rotor that will fit the same bolt pattern as a T2X but that are a bit beefier. Mine works well, but in windy conditions, I can't turn may antennas  due to wind imbalance. What beefire rotators will accommodate the same bolt pattern?
