CRT experts please

The Muntz tv that I recently posted about has a 16RP4 picture tube. It does not have an aquadag or any metal piece (grounding strap) touching the crt.
Plus there was not any flaky aquadag material on the chassis, at all.
The tv came from my best friend's Mother's house and no one in recent history messed with it.

I came across two other tv's that use the same crt and both have an aquadag and a grounding strap.

The crt in the muntz is weak and needs replaced.

Well, Just swap or what do I need to do to be safe?
