Just picked up a 88 Trek 520 and didn't see this when looking it over at first. Should I bother replacing or just leave it as is? Are these frame specific?

If it’s in the right spot now (your wheel sits nicely centered in the frame), I’d just leave it, no reason to mess with it.
If you want to learn a little more about these little tension buggers, [here’s an interesting forum discussion on them.](https://www.cyclingforums.com/threads/purpose-of-the-adjusting-screws-on-droupouts.14203/)
Not a problem at all.
Just make sure the wheel is centered when in the bike, if not just adjust the other side a bit.
Only if you want to adjust the axle placement
