A Delay Handled the Right Way
Honestly, if I were in Miami like my shipment was, I wouldn?t have been in a hurry to ship out either. I was frustrated at first ? delays cost me time on the job ? but Propel Parts stepped up.
Deb, Daniel and the team owned the mistake, kept the communication clear, and graciously refunded my shipping costs without making it a hassle. That kind of accountability is rare these days, and I genuinely appreciated how they handled it.
Things don?t always go perfectly, but these folks proved they?re more interested in doing right by their customers than just pushing parts out the door. Solid company, solid people.

P.S. Incredible quality on the pin as well. I had to do some custom modifying, and let?s just say the case hardening was ? well ? hard. Great Stuff! Thank you. -
:) great service

Great pricing and fast shipping!
I'll admit that I was skeptical of propel parts, but they are an honest site and came through with the order. I was skeptical because I've never ordered heavy machinery parts, and didn't know who to trust. The parts that I ordered showed in stock, but after checking with their vendor, they only had half of the order in stock. I was notified the day after the order, and most of the parts arrived in a few days. There was one part that was not shipped putz but I was able to talk with who I assumed is the owner who rectified the situation and had the part overnighted to me.
I will say that communication speed could use a little work, but they will eventually get back with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 3M0496 stud used for?
The 3M0496 stud plays a specific role in its assembly on Caterpillar equipment, contributing to safe, dependable performance.
How do I install the 3M0496 stud?
To install the 3M0496 properly, prepare the area first and confirm the result afterward. Use these steps:
- Shut the machine down and isolate power before working on the assembly
- Clean the mating surfaces and inspect them for wear or damage
- Remove the old part and check the area for debris
- Fit the new 3M0496 in the correct orientation per your service manual
- Reassemble to specification and confirm correct operation before returning to service
Which Caterpillar machines is the 3M0496 compatible with?
Compatibility for the 3M0496 stud varies by machine and configuration, so cross-check it for your Caterpillar equipment before ordering. Or reach out to Propel Parts for help verifying fitment.
Does the 3M0496 stud meet performance standards?
Yes. The 3M0496 is engineered to meet OEM specifications for material, dimensions, and durability. When replacing, choose genuine or high-quality aftermarket parts that meet or exceed OEM specifications so the part performs the way it was designed to.
How often should the 3M0496 be replaced?
The 3M0496 is typically renewed during scheduled service or a related repair. In demanding, high-hour operation, inspect it more often to stay ahead of wear. When servicing this area, the 3J6899 Nut Self Locking is commonly replaced at the same time.

A worn 3M0496 usually gives early warning through the assembly it supports. Watch for these signs:
- Visible wear, cracking, or corrosion on inspection
- Reduced performance or reliability in the assembly
- Unusual noise, movement, or leaks near the part
- Premature wear on the components around it
Why is the 3M0496 stud important, and what related part is commonly replaced with it?
A sound 3M0496 is inexpensive insurance against larger repairs. Servicing it on time with parts that meet OEM specifications keeps the whole assembly working as intended. During an overhaul, the 3026335 Shim is frequently replaced alongside this part.
This 3M0496 Stud is compatible with the following models:
120, 120B, 120G, 12E, 12G, 130G, 140, 14E, 14G, 1673, 1674, 16G, 3304, 3408, 3408B, 3408C, 3408E, 3412, 3412C, 3412D, 3412E, 3508B, 3516B, 5230B, 528, 561C, 627, 631D, 631E, 631G, 633E II, 637D, 637E & more...
