As above most beams are on there last legs now, If you can save them it's a few quid but worth while and makes a huge difference, The main thing if got in time you can save the beam tube as these quite often go oval when the bearing rusts/wear's away, so some new bearings, seals and maybe arms shafts and off you go again, mind it's not the cheapest route which I guess is why most do not bother,
It was Ok to lower them without looking when they where upto 6 years old, anything after that well ....
