I would, you're already in there replacing the springs. Changing the seals is just a few more minutes of work.

They are cheap and easy to replace since you have to take the springs off anyway.

Exactly, and it would be a pisser to do all that work and then it starts smoking on start up when you were just there changing springs, haha.
