Can't speak to the specifics, but having rebuilt my CV joints, I'd
recommend doing likewise. I've no idea how much work-on-car experience
you have, but it's a relatively simple project (if messy). Can easily be
done in a weekend if the internals are ok; can be done in few hours, 
really. If some parts do have wear, you should be able to tell pretty 
easily (which, of course, means waiting for the new parts to come in).
