[TowerTalk] refurbing a Cushcraft 40-2CD

[Tom_N2SR]

I am planning to refurbish an older Cushcraft 40-2CD that I purchased used many years ago with the intention of installing it on my tower.   Since I have a F12 240N up now, I have no reason to keep so, so I plan to refurb it and sell it.  

As is typical of them, the driven element end of the boom is crushed.   Since Cushcraft/MFJ does not actually make this version anymore, how do I get parts for it?  I have looked and compared the 40-2CD manual and the XM-240 manual side by side, and the end boom sections are different diameters.   Would buying the XM-240 end boom section and the 12" long coupler work?   

Is there another source of the boom material outside of Cushcraft?   

Thanks for any input.
