The sheave has a 3\32 groove for the wire rope but the ledges are on a twenty six degree angle, so it would act like vee groove. If you have the same fitting on your halyards that I do, you could try to end for end the new line through. you need to check, the rope to wire end on mine uses a spliced eye thats to big to go between the sheaves and the top bolts, but the working end has a smaller compression fitting that I got to pass though ( I had the jib halyard backwards ), but I got to do this with the mast laying down. If you get it though, I'd recomend you make a habit of checking your halyard for chafing where it sits on the sheaves, if you don't see any after awile you could assume it's not going to be a problem.
