New Axle Bearings?

Just pulled the axles out of my 71 Chevy 12 bolt and there is really not much wear on the axles themselves. Should I replace the axles bearings (even though there's not much wear) while I'm at this point or not worry about it?

If you have your axles out now I would change them.It will save you some possible issues later on down the road.
