The Leatherman Wave I picked up the other day was pretty beat up. After a soak in vinegar over night to sort the rust I decided to replace the pliers. I had an old Fuse that I took parts from to sway with my Charge ALX. Swapping the pliers is straightforward, a hobby vise helps. I used the Soto pocket torch to heat up the pivots and melt any threadlocker. Using security torx number 10 bits to undo the pivots, once the pliers are out the new ones simple drop in, line them up and tighten the screws.
