Oops ... should have written the RUBBER was cracked and looked tired. I
wouldn't use a balancer if the metal part was cracked (of if the keyway was
worn).

Re:
FWIW, the balancer on my BJ8 was cracked and looked tired but we used it anyway
when we rebuilt the engine about 80K miles ago. Still running fine.
The risk is the balancer coming apart, but I've never heard of that happening.
