Dave has Stemball Fittings on his shrouds, not T-Ball fittings. He
probably has a t-Ball Fitting on his Baby Stay (and on his running Back &
Check Stays if he has them) but that's about it.
T-Ball fittings need the rubber plugs, Stemballs don't.

Hi Dave,
Aren’t there suppose to be a plastic gasket/spacer thingy that fills the hole

I stand corrected. Looking at it today i checked and my lower shrouds are
straight. Its my check stays that are bent and that's because i move them

Something's up with the ball and socket. They should be perfectly straight.
The bend is very slight that should not be a problem. It'll straighten

Maybe I'm careless but i wouldn't hesitate to go up with those 2 shrouds

It's definitely not just that it's not tight - those shrouds actually have a
fair bit of tension on them.

Really need a picture. Can you post one on a server? I had similar on my 34+,

Looks like mine.
I wouldn't hesitate to disconnect them. Count the turns and have
