Jessica,
Depending on the sheave/axle configuration, it can be done. I replaced several sheaves on my boat with the mast up. My mast has a large metal cap on top, which holds the axles in place. It took four screws to remove it. Lifting the axles out wasn’t difficult, just a little nerve wracking. Drop one piece down the mast and it’s game over.

Anyone ever done this? Not sure where to look for parts and if it can be done without stepping the mast. Any advice is appreciated. I have a picture if it's allowed. Jessica 1975 C&C 33
