MINOR REPAIRS

 

Need to replace a part? We’ve got you covered with a wide range of components for minor truck repairs. Everything from air compressors and bearings to filters and fluids to turbos and water pumps is available at your local authorized Cat dealer or on Parts.Cat.Com.

For many components, you can choose either genuine Cat new or Cat Reman parts. Both are engineered to the exacting standards of your Cat on-highway truck engine and covered by a 12-month Caterpillar Limited Warranty1 against Caterpillar defects in material and/or workmanship. And Cat Reman parts come with an added benefit — they’re priced at a fraction of the cost of new parts with core return.2

1Warranty can vary by model and application; limitations apply. For complete details about the applicable Caterpillar Limited Warranty, contact an authorized Cat dealer.
