The Genie 30472GT Primary Boom Shim is a genuine OEM shim built for Genie S-40, S-45, and Z-60/34 boom lifts. As an authentic Genie part, this shim is manufactured to the exact thickness specification —.064 THK — ensuring the dimensional accuracy that primary boom alignment depends on. Cross-reference part number 30472GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct shim for your serial range before ordering.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness — Ground to a precise .064-inch thickness, matching the original Genie specification so boom clearances and load tolerances are correctly maintained.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Drops into the primary boom stack in place of the original shim with no material alteration required at installation.
- Confirmed Fitment — Genuine OEM part for Genie S-40 and S-45 telescopic boom lifts and the Z-60/34 articulating boom lift.
- Structural Alignment Integrity — A correctly sized shim keeps the primary boom section properly positioned; an undersized or worn shim allows play that can accelerate wear on adjacent boom components.
- Genuine Genie Quality — Sourced directly from Genie, this shim meets the material grade and dimensional standards of the original part it replaces.
A boom shim is a precision spacer fitted within the primary boom assembly to control clearance between boom sections or structural members. By occupying a defined gap, the shim keeps the boom aligned under load and prevents excessive movement between components. When a shim wears thin or is omitted, the resulting play puts additional stress on pins, wear pads, and surrounding structure — leading to accelerated wear and imprecise boom movement. Replacing a worn shim with the correct OEM part restores the tight tolerances the boom was designed to operate within.
