Bob ,

Sheaves from McMaster-Carr http://www.mcmaster.com/#rope-pulleys/=szwb6p item #3434T119. They're steel instead of aluminum. I'm in the process of replacing mine. The main is pretty easy, it gets a bit tedious, but not terribly difficult on the 2 inner. I'm replacing the 3/16" inner cable with 1/4". 

Since you're replacing the sheaves, you'll be able to get the cable ends (with the swaged in thimbles) thru the brackets.

GL!
