I have an '87 Rhodes with the factory jib tube furler.  My forestay is frayed and needs replacement.  Anybody have any ideas on how to remove the plastic split bearings without destroying them?  Stan sent me the only 2 halves that he could find since they do not use this system anymore, leaving me 2 halves short.  I would rather not have to bite the bullet and upgrade the system right now.

Thanks in advance,
