Better BX 3 PT Keeps?

   / Better BX 3 PT Keeps? #11  
The less time spent turning the turnbuckles the better IMO. The solution discussed here looks very nice. Just thought I'd mention a simple approach that takes most of the turnbuckle frustration away, without as much expense. If you replace the pin in the clevis at the end of each shackle with a quickpin, you can readilly pop them out and spread the arms to replace an attachment. The pins will cost about $2. Hope somebody that isn't ready for the full solution will benefit.

Good idea. I think I'll try that. Thanks!
