The Genie 34344GT is a genuine OEM Side Pad Shim, 16GA. 3 X 5, built for Genie S series telescopic boom lifts and Z series articulating boom lifts. As an authorized OEM part, this shim is manufactured to the same standards as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring correct fit and function without rework or modification. It is compatible across a wide range of Genie boom lift configurations, including S-40, S-45, S-60, S-65, S-80, and S-85 variants — as well as the Z-62/40 and Z-80/60 articulating booms. Cross-reference part number 34344GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct shim for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Gauge Conformity — Manufactured at 16-gauge to the original dimensional spec, ensuring the shim seats correctly between the side pad and its mating surface with no gap or misalignment.
- Direct Replacement — This shim installs in place of the original without alteration, fitting the same mounting location on covered Genie boom lift models.
- Wide Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits a broad range of Genie S series telescopic boom lifts (S-40 through S-85, including XC, TRAX, HF, FE, and DC variants) and Z series articulating boom lifts including the Z-62/40 and Z-80/60.
- Structural Alignment Support — A properly sized side pad shim maintains correct lateral clearance and contact between the pad and the boom structure. A worn or missing shim allows unwanted movement that accelerates wear on surrounding components.
- Genuine Genie Part — Supplied as a genuine OEM component, this shim carries the part quality assurance that operators and fleet managers depend on for consistent, long-service performance.
A side pad shim is a thin, precision-formed spacer that sits between the boom's side wear pad and the boom section it contacts, setting the correct lateral clearance as the boom extends and retracts. Getting that clearance right matters: too much play allows the boom sections to shift side to side, causing uneven wear on the pads and the boom structure itself, while too little clearance creates binding that puts excess stress on the extension mechanism. Replacing a worn or damaged shim with the correct OEM part — the right gauge and the right dimensions — restores the original fit and protects the surrounding components from accelerated wear.
