Understanding Core Charges
Our pricing depends on receiving a good, reusable core; it’s what keeps our remanufacturing process cost-effective and sustainable. We believe honesty is the best policy, so we trust our customers to be honest about their Core’s condition and also ship out your old core* within 10 business days. By doing so, you help us keep prices fair and avoid additional core charges.
*Remanufactured Engines for Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha and certain Can-Am models will need the core sent in for the rebuild.
So, what exactly is a good core? Determining whether your UTV/ATV Engine, Transmission or Differential qualifies as a good core is relatively straightforward. For Remanufactured Engines, good cores have: a good rebuildable cylinder head; an engine block without cracks, holes or damage; no ‘spun’ Bearing Journals. For Remanufactured Transmissions, good cores have: a good undamaged case; no ‘spun’ Bearing Journals. For Remanufactured Differentials, good cores have: a good undamaged case; a functioning magnetic cover. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us!
