[Henry] Roller Inductor

I have a Henry 2K Classic X floor console that was built in 1992.  The =
roller inductor's insulators got bad and were replaced by stock from =
Henry, but the amp still tuned stiff in some places and loose in others =
making precise tune difficult.  I got some lubricant from Paul at =
PalStar which he uses in that companies tuners.  A small dab on the =
roller inductor's friction points, roller wheel, and a very light =
application on the inside of the roller coils has resulted in a very =
smooth tune now and the arcing has disappeared in those tight places.  =
This arcing took out the insulator on the roller inductor, and two times =
cracked several of the door knobs in the plate circuit.  I have been =
told this is a wear item by Ted at Henry and that the contactor is =
available.  Does anyone have a new coil assembly?  And if so how much?  =
As I know this will eventually fail and I would like to have one on hand =
when it does.
Thanks
