The Genie 1258063GT Joystick Metering Spring is a genuine OEM component built for Genie GTH series telehandlers, specifically the GTH-636, GTH-844, and GTH-1056. As a direct OEM replacement, this spring is manufactured to the same specification as the original part, ensuring the joystick returns and responds exactly as intended. Cross-reference part number 1258063GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original material and dimensional specifications, so the spring delivers the correct tension and travel characteristics for the joystick assembly.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Installs directly in place of the worn or failed original, with no adaptation needed to fit the existing joystick assembly.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for the GTH-636, GTH-844, and GTH-1056 telehandlers; always verify against your serial number and parts manual before ordering.
- Consistent Control Response — A properly functioning metering spring maintains smooth, predictable joystick feel; a worn or fatigued spring can cause erratic control response or failure to return to neutral.
- Operator Safety — Correct joystick return-to-neutral behavior is critical on telehandlers, where unintended boom or attachment movement presents a genuine hazard.
The joystick metering spring provides the resistance and return force that allows an operator to precisely meter control inputs through the joystick. It keeps the joystick centered and ensures it returns to a neutral position when released, giving the operator consistent, repeatable feel during boom, lift, and attachment operations. When this spring fatigues, loses tension, or breaks, joystick feel becomes inconsistent and the handle may no longer return to neutral cleanly — a condition that should be corrected with a genuine OEM replacement before the machine returns to service.
