Headboard Shackle

I need a new shackle at the top of my main. The grommet on the head board is offset deeper (2 1/4") than the rest of the others. I have the 5/8" Bainbridge sail slides, so I'm limited to whatever can fit through the opening. Any suggestions?

No- for where the Headboard connects to the sail slide on the mast.
