I had a similar thing happen to me in Fairbanks. I had winterized my Chevy pickup but no one told me about needing to change my tire tube to natural rubber. It was about 60 below and I had flown from the Coldfoot Camp to Fairbanks for my 2 weeks off. I made it 3 blocks and lost all 4 tire tubes, because they were butyl and cracked in the cold. I made it a block to Sears and they had 4 rubber tubes left, I was lucky! Then, after replacing my tire tube, I made it another block and lost my fan belts, they broke. In the spring, I had to change out all my shock absorbers because the pistons inside the shocks were buytl too. Living in extreme cold takes some doing.
