Is it worth replacing only rear shocks?

'02 SE auto 5 door, 95k mi.
I've got oil on the outside of my rear shocks, which tells me it's time to replace 'em. I've got a new set of rears that I bought about 3 yrs ago for the '99 we had, but they never got installed before we got rid of the car. We're planning a 3,600 mi driving trip this August, so I was thinking of replacing the old rears now.
Is it worth doing only the rears? The ride still feels good, both front & rear, & there's no leaking on the fronts. But since the fronts are just as old as the rears, will I create any suspension problems only replacing the rears? Or is it even worth doing if I'm leaving the old fronts on?
