As always I'm afraid, Expect the worst due to worn parts so you could end up with a big bill.
I have just raised one up which needed all new bearings, Arm Shafts and seals,

Its not the case of lowering it ruins the bearings it's the cars are now at the age where they are tired already so once the arms are moved you can take a look at the condition of them, alot of the time they need repair.

I done one last week that once removed was very much knackered and needed new bearings and a new tube pressed into the arm. The price starts to go up quite quickly when these parts are all needed.
