Default new lsd or rebuild stock?

i know i would need to get a price for having the stock unit rebuilt, and what if anything can be done about the retainer clips. but i saw a kit on moe's to rebuild the lsd for 71.99. even if the labor is 200, it's still cheaper than the auburn. what do you guys think?

look like they are in pretty good shape. saving money there would def make getting a new lsd easier.
