Key Features
- Dimensionally Correct OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original 1.50" specification, this shim meets the dimensional conformity required for proper axle pin alignment and seating.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Sourced directly from Genie, this part installs in place of the original with no reworking required, maintaining the integrity of the pin joint assembly.
- Broad Z-Series Fitment — Compatible with the Z-51/30J, Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, and Z-45/22 articulating boom lifts, covering a wide span of the Genie Z-series lineup.
- Maintains Precise Pin Clearance — A correctly fitted shim controls axle pin end-play and lateral movement. A worn or missing shim allows unwanted pin movement that can lead to accelerated wear in surrounding components.
- Genuine Genie OEM Part — Supplied as an authorized Genie OEM component, supporting equipment uptime and giving you confidence in part authenticity and fitment accuracy.
An axle pin shim is a precision spacer fitted around or alongside an axle pin to control clearance, reduce play, and distribute load evenly across a joint. On articulating boom lifts, axle pins connect structural pivot points that bear significant dynamic loads during boom extension and rotation. When a shim wears thin or goes missing, the resulting pin slop accelerates wear on the pin bore and surrounding hardware, and can introduce unwanted movement into the boom structure. Replacing a worn shim promptly with the correct OEM part restores proper joint geometry and helps protect the longer-service components around it.
