Dual ballast cribber

An inline mast adapter configured for attaching a light fixture, where a light fixture is aligned (within 15.24 cm, as measured horizontally, from the center of the light fixture) with an extendable tower mast, when the extendable tower mast is in a vertical position. The inline mast adapter includes a pivot arm, such that a light fixture may be attached from ground level. The inline mast adapter further includes a first gas spring and a second gas spring configured for rotational movement for rotationally moving the pivot arm to a vertical position. Further, the inline mast adapter may be an after-market add on to the extendable tower mast, such that the inline mast adapter is a kit.
