I purchased a 39.5 foot Kiwi that lost it's spar in a race. Found a replacement spar and went to Los Angles and picked up a used spar that came off a Fast 42 that is almost the same specifications as the Kiwi. It did come with all the rigging, but I am missing some of the hardware, for the lower spreader tips. I can not find any reference or pictures for what I have after many hours of research. If anyone can tell me how this is mounted to the spreader tips it will make my day.

The holes in the turnbuckles are 5/8 and 1/2 in the eye jaw toggle. There is a 5/8" hole in the end of the spreader tip that goes threw to the other hole on the side.
I am thinking there is a clevis pin that goes in the end and is held by a cotter pin, but how does the 1/2" jaw toggle attach.
