Thinking of switching to D from E

The eastern arc dish is the 1000.4, which did use the smaller 1 5/8" mast. From what I read the mast is sturdier than others, so maybe it would be okay with a slip on metal pipe adapter, but I doubt it would pass QC from Directv.

The adapters I've seen were all plastic.
 
The only plastic ones I have seen are just pieces of pvc that were sleeved to be 1 5/8" id and probably turned to be 2" in od.
I don't think they were sold by any regular vendors. Wasn't the guy's name Mike500 or something like that that sold them? I'm sure they fit, but with a weaker mount and mast, I doubt they would hold up as well as the correctly sized mounts and masts.
