Rigging question

[Brion Toss]

Hi,
This is an ancient issue. Turnbuckle forks are sized to accommodate aluminum chainplates as well as steel; the latter are always thinner, hence the gappage. Typically the offset is not a problem, as the moment arm is short, even if the toggle is set to one side. Washers will keep the toggle centered, but can trap water, especially if they are nylon, which absorbs and retains water. I'd rather use something impermeable, and loose-fitting.
Fair leads,
