The Genie 235683GT is a genuine OEM Plastic Shim, 5/16X2X3-3/16 designed for AL5000 and AL5 light towers. As a factory-sourced component, this shim is manufactured to the exact dimensional spec Genie engineers built into the original assembly, ensuring the correct fit without rework or field modification. Cross-reference part number 235683GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Exact Dimensional Conformity — Produced to OEM spec at 5/16X2X3-3/16, this plastic shim delivers the precise thickness and profile the original design requires.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly through Genie's authorized parts supply chain, so you receive the same component that left the factory with the machine.
- Correct Spacing and Alignment — A properly fitted shim maintains the designed clearance between mating components; a worn or missing shim allows unwanted movement and accelerated wear at the joint it serves.
- AL5000 and AL5 Fitment — Confirmed for Genie AL5000 and AL5 light towers, covering the common variants in this portable light tower family.
A shim is a thin spacer inserted between two mating surfaces to set a precise gap, correct alignment, or take up slack caused by wear or manufacturing tolerance. On light tower equipment, shims are used wherever components must sit at a defined position relative to one another — allowing the assembly to function as designed and preventing looseness that leads to vibration or premature wear. When a shim compresses, cracks, or goes missing, the components it separates can shift out of position, so replacing it with a part that matches the original dimensions is essential to restoring the assembly to correct operating condition.
