The Genie 34343GT Side Pad Shim is a genuine OEM shim designed for Genie S-60, S-65, S-80, and S-85 telescopic boom lifts. As a factory-original component, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the part it replaces, ensuring a correct, consistent fit within the boom structure. Cross-reference part number 34343GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right shim for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie OEM specifications, with correct 16-gauge material thickness and a .44 slot dimension for dimensional conformity with the original component.
- Direct-Replacement Fit — Installs in place of the original shim without alteration, maintaining the proper side pad positioning and clearance within the boom assembly.
- Broad S-Series Compatibility — Fits Genie S-60, S-65, S-80, and S-85 telescopic boom lifts, covering a range of commonly deployed straight-boom models.
- Structural Integrity at the Boom Section — A correctly sized shim keeps the side pad seated at the right contact point; a worn or missing shim allows unwanted lateral movement between boom sections, accelerating wear on surrounding components.
- Sourced from DHS Equipment — Sold as a genuine Genie OEM part, so the specification, slot size, and gauge are exactly what the machine was built to accept.
A side pad shim is a precision spacer that sits between the boom's side wear pad and the boom section it supports. Its job is to set and maintain the correct lateral clearance as the boom extends and retracts, keeping the sections aligned and moving smoothly. When a shim wears down or is missing, the side pad loses its proper seating, leading to increased play between boom sections, accelerated wear pad deterioration, and rougher boom travel. Replacing a worn shim with the correct OEM part restores the intended fit and protects the surrounding boom structure.
