The Multiquip 73-1700 is a genuine OEM Handle Support Bracket designed for Tufftruck power buggy models TB12SE, TB12PE, TB11E, and TB11G. As a direct Multiquip OEM component, it is manufactured to the exact tolerances and geometry of the original part, ensuring a straight bolt-on replacement with no guesswork on fitment. If your current bracket is bent, cracked, or otherwise compromised, swapping in the 73-1700 restores full handle integrity and operator control confidence on the job.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the same material grade and dimensional spec as the original bracket, so structural strength at the handle mount point is fully restored.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches the original mounting hole pattern and profile on TB12SE, TB12PE, TB11E, and TB11G frames, allowing straightforward installation without cutting or drilling.
- Broad Tufftruck Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across four power buggy models: TB12SE, TB12PE, TB11E, and TB11G, covering both electric-start and gas-powered variants.
- Restored Handle Rigidity — A damaged or missing support bracket allows handle flex and instability during loaded runs; replacing it with the 73-1700 returns the handle assembly to its intended rigid, controlled feel.
- Operator Safety Relevance — The handle support bracket is a structural component in the steering and control system of the buggy; maintaining its integrity is essential for safe, predictable machine handling on ramps and uneven terrain.
The handle support bracket is a structural mounting component that connects and braces the operator handle assembly to the main frame of the power buggy. It bears the mechanical loads transferred through the handles during steering, maneuvering, and load control, keeping the handle position stable and consistent. When this bracket is bent, cracked, or broken, the handle assembly can shift or flex unpredictably, degrading operator control and creating unsafe handling conditions — particularly when the buggy is loaded or traveling on sloped surfaces.
