Need to replace the closed body turnbuckles for both upper shroulds. The upper connection will turn freely, but the lower one is frozen. Catalina direct has the replacement 3/8 bodies. This is the right size for the 'big' turnbuckle, right? I think I can reuse the upper connection if the screw threads match, but I need the lower screw fitting which are frozen. Any suggestions for a good source for complete turnbuckles or turnbuckle components? Thanks, Keith S/V Stayare

Don't replace with closed body turnbuckles

they're a disaster waiting to happen, get the open body turnbuckles. Sources? C'mon - West Marine, this website, Defender, the list is endless.
