First, have a Load test done on it for CC capacity. Based on the results yu might guage yourself for a change say in another 4 or 6 months, if it's not critical. Might just need a distilled water top off and trickle charge to buy another year.

But changing it at this point would be good insurance and peace of mind. That's a personal call. Yu got your moneys worth and then some.
