Rewiring a Well Tempered tonearm- thoughts?

I've owned a Well Tempered Turntable/tonearm since 1991. I set it aside in 2000, and just began to use it again, but I've discovered some age related issues. First and foremost, I need to replace the fluid that damps the tonearm. No issue there, but I'm going to have to address the tonearm wires. They've all faded, and were significantly abraded/broken between the tonearm and the RCA outputs. I have a source for some super-litz wire, but have not bought any yet. Has anyone taken on a project like this?
