The Genie 51.0809.4000GT is a genuine OEM Wear Pad Shim designed for Genie GTH series telehandlers, including the GTH-2506, GTH-3007, GTH-3512SX, GTH-4010SX, GTH-3713 SX, and related AU and ACF variants. Sourced directly from Genie, this shim delivers the exact thickness and material specification required to maintain proper wear pad alignment within the boom assembly. It is a verified fit for GTH-2506 AU, GTH-2506 AU.2, GTH-3007 AU.2, GTH-3007 AU-AG, GTH-3007 ACF, GTH-3512 ACF, GTH-3713 AU, and the GTH-4010SX, covering a broad range of Genie telehandler configurations.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Tolerance — Manufactured to the precise thickness specification Genie requires for correct wear pad stack-up, ensuring the shim performs exactly as designed within the boom slide assembly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat correctly between the wear pad and boom section without secondary machining or fitting work, restoring the original contact geometry.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits a wide range of Genie GTH models, including AU, AU.2, AU-AG, ACF, and SX variants, making it a practical stocking item for fleets running multiple GTH configurations.
- Boom Stability and Smooth Extension — A correctly shimmed wear pad maintains consistent clearance between boom sections, supporting smooth telescoping action and stable load handling throughout the lift cycle.
- Structural Integrity Under Load — Wear pad shims are a load-path component in the boom assembly. A worn or missing shim allows excess lateral movement in the boom sections, which can compromise boom alignment and structural performance during operation — making timely replacement a genuine safety consideration.
A wear pad shim is a precision spacer fitted behind or beneath the wear pads that line the inner surfaces of a telehandler's telescoping boom sections. Its job is to set and maintain the correct clearance between the boom tubes so the boom extends and retracts smoothly while staying properly aligned under load. As wear pads gradually thin through normal use, shims allow the clearance to be adjusted back to specification without replacing the entire pad assembly. When a shim is missing, undersized, or damaged, the boom sections can develop unwanted play, leading to uneven wear pad contact, accelerated pad wear, and reduced boom precision — all of which affect the accuracy and safety of load placement at height.
