Science I buy parts from propel parts I don’t have to spend too much down time always on time and good service
Propel Parts provided quality parts for my Caterpillar needs at a very fair price. Shipping to my international location was very fast. took about a week for the parts to get here. Seller is also responsive with my inquiry.
Thanks again
Very helpful. Every question or request I had was answered quickly. I didn't have a parts book for my excavator but that was no problem for them. If you need parts for your Cat, give them a shot.
