The Genie 42314GT is a genuine OEM Side Pad Shim designed for Z-25/8, Z-20/8, and Z-20/8N articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through Genie's authorized parts program, this shim is manufactured to the exact gauge and slot dimensions required for proper side pad alignment and fitment. It is the correct part for maintaining the structural integrity of the pad mounting system on these compact articulating booms.
Key Features
- OEM Gauge Conformity — Manufactured to 16-gauge specification with a .44 slot, matching the original part exactly for consistent dimensional performance.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to install in the same position as the original shim, with no reworking of the mounting interface required.
- Confirmed Fitment — Compatible with Z-25/8, Z-20/8, and Z-20/8N Genie articulating boom lifts; cross-reference part number 42314GT against your machine's parts manual to verify fitment for your serial range.
- Proper Pad Alignment — A correctly fitted shim keeps the side pad seated squarely, preventing uneven contact, accelerated wear, and unwanted movement at the pad mount.
- Genuine OEM Part — Supplied as an authentic Genie component, ensuring the material grade and slot geometry match what the machine was built with.
A side pad shim is a precisely dimensioned spacer that sets the correct clearance and alignment between a side pad and its mounting surface on the boom structure. When the shim is worn, damaged, or missing, the side pad can shift out of position, leading to uneven contact, increased wear on surrounding components, and looseness in the pad assembly. Replacing a worn shim with the correct OEM part restores proper pad seating and helps the surrounding structure wear evenly over time. Always verify part number 42314GT against your machine's parts manual before ordering to confirm it is the right specification for your unit.
