The Genie 55073GT Boom Extension Shim is a genuine OEM component built for TMZ-50/30 and TMZ-17/10 trailer-mounted articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this shim meets the original design specification, ensuring the correct clearance and alignment are restored when this part is installed. Confirmed fitment for the TMZ-50/30 and TMZ-17/10 makes it straightforward to order with confidence — always cross-reference part number 55073GT against your machine's parts manual to verify it is the correct item for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to the original Genie specification, this shim delivers the exact thickness and material grade required for proper boom extension alignment on TMZ series booms.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Designed to drop into the same position as the original, this component installs without modification or adaptation to the boom assembly.
- Confirmed TMZ Fitment — Fits the TMZ-50/30 and TMZ-17/10 trailer-mounted articulating boom lifts, covering both models in the TMZ family.
- Maintains Correct Boom Clearance — A properly fitted shim keeps the boom extension sections correctly spaced and aligned. A worn or missing shim can introduce unwanted play into the boom, leading to imprecise movement and accelerated wear on surrounding components.
- Operational Integrity — Correct boom alignment is essential to safe, predictable machine operation at height. Replacing a worn shim promptly keeps the boom extension functioning as designed on the TMZ-50/30 and TMZ-17/10.
A boom extension shim is a precisely dimensioned spacer fitted between sections of the boom assembly to control clearance, reduce lateral play, and maintain correct alignment as the boom extends and retracts. Over time, shims can wear, compress, or become damaged, allowing unwanted movement between boom sections that places additional stress on structural components and degrades the smoothness and accuracy of boom travel. Replacing the shim with the correct OEM part restores the original fit and keeps the boom extension operating as intended.
