I ordered only yesterday an R2 cap ex Cat Melbourne and only a little over AUD$17 . Thats under $12USD . And I have just been told Cat parts went up 30% end of last year !! Lance
$11 & change from FABCO in Milwaukee. It is in stock in MN and ships direct to me with a couple of other items. A guy up in Northern WI said it should be $12 & change.
Well I don't know what is going on because I priced out a cap for a D311 which is the same engine as in a D2 & my local CAT dealer wanted $150.00 CAN. Told him thanks but no thanks I was also expecting it be approx. $50.00. Wish I lived closer to one of the dealerships your dealing with.
The J series/D3400 cap is very different than the D2 U series/D311 cap. There is yet another cap used on the very late model D2s/ 93311A, that one is probably not available new.
They put a new rad cap on my D7E before I got it and the bills showed that it was 25.00 cdn. That's the D339T. Actually was a bit surprised when I looked threw the bills and saw that. Figured it would be more. I don't know who they ordered threw or where they got it from. Maybe that was the dealers cost on it, I'm not sure but that's what showed up.
