Discover why thousands of fleet operators, contractors, and businesses trust remanufactured diesel engines. Get OEM quality at a fraction of the cost while making an environmentally responsible choice.
Remanufactured engines offer the perfect balance of quality, value, and sustainability.
Remanufactured engines cost significantly less than new OEM engines while delivering the same performance and reliability.
Every engine includes our comprehensive 1-year unlimited mileage warranty, giving you peace of mind and protection.
With over 1,200 engines in stock, most orders ship within 3-5 business days - faster than waiting for a new engine.
Remanufacturing recycles up to 85% of the original engine, reducing waste and conserving natural resources.
Our engines meet or exceed original equipment specifications, ensuring the same performance as a new engine.
Choosing remanufactured reduces the carbon footprint associated with manufacturing new engines from raw materials.
Every engine goes through our rigorous 8-step remanufacturing process to ensure OEM quality and reliability.
We source quality engine cores from across the country. Each core is carefully inspected to ensure it meets our standards for remanufacturing.
Every engine is completely disassembled down to the bare block. All components are separated, cataloged, and prepared for inspection.
Components undergo thorough cleaning using specialized equipment. Each part is then meticulously inspected for wear, cracks, and damage using precision measuring tools.
Cylinder bores are honed, crankshafts are ground, and all machined surfaces are restored to OEM specifications or better.
All wear items are replaced with new OEM or OEM-equivalent parts including pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, and timing components.
Skilled technicians reassemble each engine following strict torque specifications and assembly procedures. Every step is documented.
Every remanufactured engine is run-tested on computerized dynamometer equipment - the same testing used by major OEM manufacturers.
Final inspection ensures every engine meets our rigorous quality standards before being prepared for shipping to our customers.

Get answers to common questions about remanufactured engines.
A remanufactured engine is completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and reassembled with new wear components to meet or exceed OEM specifications. A rebuilt engine typically only has failed components replaced while leaving other worn parts in place. Remanufacturing is a more comprehensive process that results in a higher quality, more reliable engine.
A properly remanufactured engine should last as long as a new engine - typically 200,000+ miles for diesel engines with proper maintenance. Our remanufacturing process restores engines to OEM specifications, giving them the same life expectancy as new.
Yes. Our remanufactured engines meet or exceed original equipment specifications. All wear items are replaced with new components, and every engine is dynamometer tested. The main difference is cost - you get new-engine quality at 30-50% less.
All wear items are replaced including: pistons, piston rings, rod and main bearings, camshaft bearings, gaskets, seals, timing components, oil pump, and water pump. Additional components are replaced as needed based on inspection.
Yes. Every US Engine Production remanufactured engine includes a comprehensive 1-year unlimited mileage warranty covering parts and labor. This warranty is valid at qualified repair facilities nationwide.
