    Search around if you call Cummins.... they sure don’t carry a lot for Big Cam anymore. They did have a new crank balancer in stock.... keyword “DID” :) I make one phone call and 99% of the time it’s here next day if not already on the shelf ;). I am fortunate to have a oldskool parts guy turned parts house owner as a long time Freind.
    He keeps things in stock for the Big Cams (gaskets/seals/bushings and the such, especially because of me. Starter / compressor in stock, wheel bearings and seals, air bags, brake parts, lights, exhaust parts / mufflers, all in stock. Now if I call Cummins it’s a horse of another color lol:).

    When Logan broke down I picked up a new bag for him and installed it.... I knew he was frustrated.

    When my Freind Travis blowed a front pancake...... (no not blueberry @stwik ):D:p..... I made a call, Travis showed up at near 9:00 that night. Drove down and got the new pancake out of the big mailbox, I’m pretty blessed on getting parts. But now things like headgaskets I will call Cummins, Just feel they are better than McBee. Although I have never had a issue with McBee or others actually.

    Sometimes a man is on his own....

    Anyone ever breaks down in my neck of the woods, here are some places all within 15 miles or so of each other.... except Cummins and Minnick, they are up by charelston and across the interstate from each other.

    Central City is off exit 6 on I-64.

    Webb’s between exits 1&6 on route 60 which runs parallel to 64.

    Power Products is on US 23 north in Ashland, KY.

    The main Cummins dealership & Jim Minnick diesel is at exit 47 on 64 at Cross lanes.

    Hope no one ever needs them.

    You may be surprised what all Cat has had their name on lol. They was big into hydraulic valves for mining use. My cousin owns a company that rebuilds them as well as Bucyrus and other brands.
    When things got slow during the Obama days I would go up and help him out a little. Some of those Orings are VERY tiny!!
