    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.
