The Genie 1256308GT Rod End is a genuine OEM component built for Genie GTH telehandlers and Z and ZX series articulating boom lifts, including the GTH-636, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, ZX-135/70, and Z-80/60. As a factory-sourced part, it meets the exact dimensional and material specifications Genie requires for correct operation and long service life. Cross-reference part number 1256308GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to Genie's exact tolerances, this rod end meets the thread pitch, shank length, and spherical bearing geometry required for a correct connection every time.
- Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Sized at .75 x 5 with a ZAG bearing, this rod end installs directly in place of the original without rework or adaptation.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Compatible with the GTH-636, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, ZX-135/70, and Z-80/60, covering both Genie GTH telehandlers and Z and ZX articulating booms.
- Pivot Point Integrity — A sound rod end maintains smooth, controlled articulation at the linkage joint it serves. A worn or loose rod end introduces play into the connection, leading to imprecise movement and accelerated wear on adjacent components.
- Operational Safety — On aerial lifts and telehandlers, linkage joints that connect boom or attachment functions are critical to controlled machine movement. Replacing a worn rod end with the correct OEM part restores the mechanical connection to its intended specification.
A rod end is a pivoting connector fitted to the threaded end of a rod or actuator, allowing controlled angular movement between two joined components. The spherical bearing inside the housing permits the joint to articulate smoothly under load while maintaining a secure connection. When a rod end wears, its internal bearing develops play, which introduces slop into the linkage, reduces movement precision, and places additional stress on surrounding hardware. Replacing it promptly with the correct part restores the joint to its proper function and protects the components it connects.
