The Genie 07.0709.1206GT Steering Cylinder is a genuine OEM component built for Genie GTH series telehandlers, including the GTH-5519, GTH-2506 IIIA, GTH-2506 IIIB, and GTH-2506 AU.3. As a direct OEM replacement, this steering cylinder is manufactured to the same standards as the original unit, ensuring proper fitment and correct operation on the machines listed. Cross-reference part number 07.0709.1206GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right cylinder for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the exact dimensional and material specifications of the original, so the cylinder seats, seals, and connects correctly without adaptation.
- Direct Replacement — Designed to swap in as a like-for-like replacement for the original steering cylinder on compatible GTH telehandlers, simplifying the repair process.
- Broad GTH Fitment — Confirmed fit for the GTH-5519, GTH-2506 IIIA, GTH-2506 IIIB, and GTH-2506 AU.3; always verify against your serial number and parts manual.
- Steering Integrity — A correctly functioning steering cylinder gives the operator responsive, predictable directional control. A worn or leaking cylinder can cause sluggish or inconsistent steering response, affecting maneuverability on the worksite.
- Operational Safety — Steering is a primary control system on a telehandler. Replacing a failed cylinder with a genuine OEM part helps ensure the machine responds as the operator intends, which is critical when handling loads at height or in confined areas.
The steering cylinder is the component responsible for translating operator input at the wheel into physical movement of the front axle, allowing the telehandler to change direction. It works by extending or retracting to pivot the steering axle in response to pressure from the steering circuit. When a steering cylinder begins to fail — through internal leakage, seal wear, or physical damage — the machine may exhibit slow steering response, a tendency to drift, or a complete loss of directional control, all of which compromise safe operation. Replacing the cylinder with the correct OEM part restores full, predictable steering performance.
