If it is what you can afford to do right now, replacing the booys is still better than leaving the system open to the environment and getting more dirt in there. If he is willing to write off the labor....sure go for it.
Remember though that YOU are choosing to not spend the $$$ to have the system cleaned out or replaced. One day, it will fail (probably not catastrophically....likely it will start leaking fluid...so you will have some warning) and when it does, you will be spending the $$$ anyway, but you might be in a better financial situation to do so then.
As far as the alignment, getting one should straighten out the pull you describe as well as improve tire life and fuel economy if done correctly.
