Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to original Genie specifications for dimensional accuracy and material grade, ensuring the pin seats and functions exactly as the factory-installed component.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Designed to install into the axle assembly without modification, matching the original mounting points and tolerances on the supported models.
- Broad SX and ZX Compatibility — Fits Genie SX super-boom and ZX articulating boom lifts, including the SX-150, SX-180, SX-135 XC, SX-125 XC, and ZX-135/70.
- Steering and Axle Integrity — A sound king pin maintains proper axle pivot alignment; a worn or damaged pin introduces play into the axle, affecting directional control and stability during machine travel.
A king pin is the central pivot fastener in the axle steering assembly, allowing the axle or wheel hub to rotate for directional control during travel. On large boom lifts like the SX and ZX series, this pin is a structural component that bears significant lateral and vertical loads as the machine moves across the jobsite. When a king pin wears, corrodes, or fails, the result is excessive play in the axle pivot, leading to imprecise steering, uneven tire wear, and the potential for loss of directional control — all of which require the machine to be taken out of service until the pin is replaced with the correct part.
