Great customer service answered email question quickly.
Have been buying parts from them for years, and they have always delivered, both with parts and customer service.
I own old cat bulldozers D8k,D8H,D8N that required frequent repairs and servicing. it was erratic and practically cumbersome to keep them running without constant supply of reliable
and affordable spares in Uganda a third world country however,since I started dealing with propel parts US,my bulldozers have earned reliability and efficiency in providing high quality services to clients and making me a great dependable construction company in earth moving.
My shipments are always handled expeditiously and delivered in record time to Uganda this is awesome from Propelparts.
