my suggestion be:
- create backups of sites using akeeba https://www.akeebabackup.com/compatibility.html
- transfer sites localhost (xampp localhost http://www.apachefriends.org ).
- after transferring sites localhost
- set standard template default 1.5.3 , update 1.5.26 don't worry updating extensions not going use site after export data.
(suggest use 1.5.26 full package , use files except /installation folder) - use http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... port/12816 export articles , users of 1.. when select section exports associated categories , articles , creates sections/categories categories/sub categories.
- set standard template default 1.7.1 , update 2.5.8 http://docs.joomla.org/upgrading_from_j ... joomla_2.5
- when have got site updated/upgraded 2.5.8 , checked update extensions(some update via extension manager update ... others not)
- then import data(previously exported 1.5.26) 2.5.8 http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... tion/15807
