The Multiquip A400496001 is a genuine OEM Tow Bar Bushing designed for GBX12SK and GBX24BK series equipment. As a direct OEM replacement, this bushing is manufactured to the exact specifications required for proper tow bar operation, ensuring correct fitment without any guesswork. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, the A400496001 is the same component installed at the factory. If you're servicing GBX12SK or GBX24BK units, this is the correct bushing for the job.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Spec — Manufactured to the same dimensional and material tolerances as the original, ensuring the bushing seats and wears correctly within the tow bar assembly.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same bore and outer diameter as the factory bushing, fitting directly into the existing tow bar mount without modification.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for GBX12SK and GBX24BK equipment; use part number A400496001 to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Wear Resistance — A properly functioning tow bar bushing reduces metal-to-metal contact, preventing accelerated wear on the tow bar pin and surrounding hardware.
- Towing Integrity — A worn or failed tow bar bushing introduces play into the tow connection, which can affect steering response and safe transport of the unit — replacing it promptly restores proper tow bar rigidity.
The tow bar bushing is a small but critical component in the tow bar assembly, acting as a wear interface between the tow bar pin and the surrounding bracket or yoke. It absorbs the friction and lateral load generated during towing, preventing direct metal contact that would rapidly wear down the structural components. When this bushing wears out, noticeable slop or looseness develops in the tow connection, which can compromise towing control and accelerate damage to the pin, bracket, and adjacent hardware.
