Topic: Phenolic Spacer Discussion (split from Parts Pictures)

I heard of a few of them cracking at low temps, ie. our climate... might be something to confirm or not. Rocket wouldn't let me install them on my car for that reason when it was still winter driven. Maybe the spacers have changed since then (3 years ago).

I have see posts like this back in 2003 but I am pretty sure it was due to crappy products, I have yet to see one crack on a subaru or even seen a post on the forums stating that someone has cracked one.

I ran them all through winter at -40 degree weather, never had a block heater either and never cracked.

I still have them in a box somewhere too.
