John,
I believe the insulator is swaged onto the backstay about three to five
feet from the end terminal.
There are insulators that use a Norseman type fitting too.
http://www.obmc.com/norseman%20swageless%20insulators.htm for an example.
Staylock probably makes them also.
I expect they can be done in situ.
