PULLEY-ALTERNATOR 2Y8924 - Caterpillar

With each purchase of Caterpillar equipment, the user also gets Caterpillar's Product Support System-a system that adds to the value of all Caterpillar equipment. The high quality of the Caterpillar Product Support System, along with the high quality of the product, is what makes the difference between Caterpillar equipment and other equipment.
The Caterpillar dealer service man is a very important part of that Product Support System. Each time a Caterpillar service man works on a piece of equipment, he makes selections of repair options that add to the value of that equipment in the hands of the user. That is what makes the difference between Caterpillar dealer service departments and other service shops.
One of the important selections that a service man makes is to use components again or to make an exchange for a new component or a component from the Remanufacturing Program.
The Caterpillar Remanufacturing Program is one of the product support services available through dealer service departments to give Caterpillar users added value. The program gives value to Caterpillar users in 3 important ways:
1) The products are of high quality.2) The cost of remanufactured components is less than the cost of new components.3) Use of the program allows the customer to get back to work fast.The reconditioning of engines, short blocks and other components is done at the Caterpillar Remanufacturing Facility in Bettendorf, Iowa, U.S.A. The facility uses the latest reconditioning and assembly methods. It also uses the latest procedures to control the quality of the products remanufactured by Caterpillar.
The Remanufacturing Program is possible because used products are exchanged for replacement products remanufactured by Caterpillar. Remanufactured products can be purchased only when an acceptable core is available for the exchange. All products remanufactured by Caterpillar give high quality and low cost repair options when acceptable cores are available for exchange. Because many service options are available, dealer personnel and users must carefully inspect all options-from an in-frame overhaul, a completely rebuilt engine, a remanufactured component or short block, to a completely remanufactured engine. The products that follow are available through Remanufacturing Programs.
Engines
Engine arrangements currently remanufactured by Caterpillar fill most user needs for the 1100 and 3100 Series Engines and the 3208 and 3406 Engine models. A Special Instruction/Conversion Guide is sent with each remanufactured engine so that necessary changes can be made to adapt the engine to different application needs. Prices are approximately 63 percent of the cost of a new engine (about 50 percent for the 3406 Engine). Each remanufactured engine is checked with a dynamometer to be sure it operates at the same specifications as a new engine. All remanufactured engines have a Caterpillar Warranty.
Short Blocks
At times, because of the conditions of the overhaul, a remanufactured engine is not the best repair option. If the cost of downtime is not as high as the cost of an overhaul, a remanufactured short block can be a better repair option. Remanufactured short blocks are made of the factory-assembled components that follow: cylinder block group, cylinder block cover
