In Response To: Replacing the bolt with the large shackle? (Jim I,94 S25 'H2O', Wilmington, NC)

Remove the bolt that holds the spreader onto the mast casting. Thread the swaged wire end onto the shackle U. Use the shackle pin where the removed bolt went and screw pin into shackle. Now the swaged assembly is attached to the mast casting via the shackle. Well done!
