Abstract
A short and simple telescoping turnbuckle is formed by threadedly engaging three parts including a first end, a second end and a length adjuster. The first end includes a connection portion such as a hook or a ring and a threaded shaft. The second end includes a connection portion and a internally threaded tubular potion. The length adjuster includes a cylinder having internal threads to engage the shaft of the first end and external threads to engage the tubular portion of the second end. The length of the telescoping turnbuckle may be altered by rotating the length adjuster about the rotational axis of the turnbuckle.
