Dave, a Yaesu GS050 thrust bearing would work well for this application.  
Available at your favorite radio supply store, such as Texas Towers.

GM to  All,
I need ideas and help on guying a small, 10' X 1-1/2" mast that I use  on 
my truck. I have a 6M Moxon antenna at the top and a Yaesu g-800 rotor at  
the base and want to be able to rotate the mast.
What I'm looking for is a  some sort of a collar and slip ring setup where 
I can attach the collar to the  mast using set screws or   a bolt that goes 
through the collar and  mast. The slip ring will set on top of the mast and 
have the ability to attach  a set of guy wires to it. Is there something out 
there like I have described?  Anyone have any other ideas on how to guy a 
small mast? 
I've looked at  McMaster Carr catalog and it looks like I can get the 
collar.
Thanks in  advance.
73, 

Dave - W6TE
