Yep. Sure would. You should change your packings annually at minimum. Resin side is usually a bit more forgiving.

Hey Olger how hard are they to replace one guy said they were not too bad to do. Should I attempt it or send the rig in. Man this cold weather has us busy, busy.

Not too hard. About like a paint pump. Takes about 2-hours per side.
