Galvanized Turnbuckles and Paint

[Jak Mang]

I had already sand blasted and re-galvanized these. I will skip the paint on the threads and lubricate them well.

I believe that the parts are in generally good condition and I am replacing some adjacent shackles that had more wear. The rust was only surface stuff. My understanding is that high quality galvanized fittings that are properly sized and maintained will last a very long time. While cheaper than bronze and stainless, US-made Crosby galvanized is quite a bit more expensive than the Home Depot/imported stuff.
