Unfortunately, often replacing a ~15 year old beam with another ~15 year old beam is often a false economy as an ever-increasing percentage of them are dead or dying.
If you can find a proven good beam then great - but I'll warn you now as someone that's rebuilt dozens, that a lack of failure symptoms does not mean that it is good, merely that it's not completely f**ked. The only way to be sure of condition is to strip them down and inspect (and if you've gone that far, it's silly not to rebuild IMO)
