Try building a coaxial balun. Two styles come to mind.
4:1 using a half wave line between the two outputs.
1:1 using a quarter wave sleeve. I've seen this type integrated into FM broadcast antennas rated at about 15kW.
There should be information in the ARRL radio handbook or their antenna handbook. Either would be capable of operating up to the rated power of the coaxial cable.

i called arraysolutions and he said they dont have any that can handle 10kw on am, but he could make me one for $900.00, seems a little steep. i think im gonna try making a choke out of rg218
wow i cant believe the price of high powered baluns m2 antenna makes a 10kw they want $600.00 for one
I still think it would be worthwhile to look into building your own.
What transformation ratio is needed? 4:1 would be quite easy once you have the right cable.
