Expensive replacements are not a requirement: when I purchased my 37, the
sheaves would not turn at all; I removed them (mast down, of course) and used
very fine emery cloth on the sheaves and the axles; they still spin freely
without friction after five years..; I have the old wire sheaves but switched
to all rope halyards without issues;

I think that for me when it's time to replace the sheaves it will be time to
replace the boat and let the next owner deal with it.
