Joel, Not sure which organizer you have.  On some organizers the fastener is the axle.  On others, the fastener goes through a bushing that is attached to the bottom plate of the organizer.  The sheave rides on the bushing.  Best thing is to remove all the fasteners and the top plate and look a

My boat has 3 sheave deck organizers. One of the center sheaves is frozen. I hit it with PB Blaster and loosened the screw. I was able to slide a putty knife under it top and bottom but it is still frozen. Can I just remove the screw completely and give it a whack to dislodge it so I can clean
