[QUOTE="Ironhorse2022, post: 492886, member: 31989"] A quick search reveals that 3” garage door pulleys may be a good substitute. Metal with bearings rather than plastic with bushings. Also removable forks (probably not these ones) may allow me to use the original hull anchors without having to drill out the rivets. They also allow better maintenance practices, allowing the pulleys to be removed, cleaned and lubed easily. Looking for some made in the USA - not so easy. [/QUOTE]
