Depends on if everything works and how bad the leaks. If rods are good on cylinders , seals are not bad to replace but if rods are pitted then looking at cost, pins and bushings can get expensive if wear is beyond bushing and holes are deformed.

I paid a little more for my 715B but that was 15 years back and made that back many times over.
