Topband: Insulator problems

[Herb Schoenbohm]

My 160 meter ATU uses an old military box with the  original behive feed 
thru insulator that is starting to crumble.  I haven't been able to find 
a pocelin feed thu of that size (about 3'') and the ones on e bay are 
very small.  Any suggestions for a source?
