Customer "Dropped" a 60 Series Detroit Core...

[mwilson]

I see things here that would curl your hair...

Customer purchased a full dressed 60 Series Reman Powerchoice engine, DROPPED the take out engine during the swap....

Lost about $2,000.00 in core value due to damaged items...the thermostat housing that is missing is part of the cylinder head so that's instant junk....

 

[mwilson]

Dropped and then fell on it's right hand side...musta' been some noise when that hit the cement floor....

 

[CBari]

If it had been me my foot would have been under it to break the fall. That is just how my luck has been lately.

 

[KHellewell]

Nothing a little J/B weld won't fix right

 

[Wayne M.]

Folks don't realize that's more than a Geo Metro in weight sitting there.

 

[EDankievitch]

Duct tape and some Jb weld an all will be good ....

 

[BDaugherty]

It's a shame. Good used parts are getting hard to come by.

 

[Shadrach]

Good thing it wasn't a real diesel.

Oh puhleeeze......

If it wasn't for the long run of 60 Series Detroit engines as competition Cummins would be just sitting back still peddling N14 engines....:-laf

Next you will tell me that a Signature would have bounced without damage if dropped....

Parts guys, all the same....whoops, that would include me....

The S60 is highly revered around here. I'd say it's #2 behind the old 3406.

If it had been a CAT, it would have busted the concrete floor.

Yeah, while the engine itself was protected by the layer of dirt stuck to all of the oil that had leaked out of it!
