Yup, it's time. If you have the skills and a moderate set of hand tools (plus a hydraulic press, about 100 bucks), you can do the rebuild yourself. The rebuild kit is about $100-150, can't remember, and it's actually quite easy. It can get a little more expensive if any of the gears need replacing.

Spend the extra money and get a kevlar rebuild kit.. It's a bit more money but deff. better...and lasts longer
