I'm in a similar boat; 70k 11 years old. I had a very similar question recently and all the above was the same feedback I got. If you're parked outside in really hot dry desert conditions all the time you probably need to replace rubber parts sooner than if you're parked in a garage in more moderate climate. But if the hoses still feel soft and rubbery then they're probably perfectly fine. If you see a bit of cracking or they feel dry and hard, certainly consider replacing. If it's a matter of convenience during other work and/or provides peace of mind, then by all means have at it.
