The Genie 1268965GT is a genuine OEM Torque Converter, Dana 1104F, designed for Genie GTH-series telehandlers including the GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, GTH-1044, GTH-1244, and GTH-1544. As a direct OEM replacement, this component is sourced to the same specifications as the original unit, ensuring a correct interface with the drivetrain on every compatible machine. Cross-reference part number 1268965GT against your parts manual before ordering to confirm application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dana 1104F Specification — Matched to the original torque converter specification for the GTH-series drivetrain, delivering the correct fluid coupling ratio and torque multiplication characteristics the transmission expects.
- Direct Drivetrain Fit — Engineered to bolt directly to the Dana transmission housing used in these telehandlers, aligning input shaft, bolt pattern, and flex-plate interface without modification.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits the GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, GTH-1044, GTH-1244, and GTH-1544, covering a wide range of Genie telescopic handler configurations.
- Smooth Power Transfer Under Load — A properly functioning torque converter allows the telehandler to accelerate smoothly under heavy load, protecting the transmission from shock loading during travel and lift cycles.
- Operational Safety Under Heavy-Lift Conditions — On a telehandler operating at capacity, a failing torque converter can cause sluggish or unpredictable drive response; replacing it with the correct OEM unit restores predictable machine behavior critical to safe load handling.
A torque converter is a fluid coupling device positioned between the engine and the transmission. It transfers rotational power from the engine to the drivetrain without a mechanical clutch, using hydraulic fluid to multiply torque during acceleration and allow the engine to idle independently of the wheels. In a telehandler like the GTH-series, the torque converter plays a central role in smooth travel, gradeability, and controlled load movement. When the converter wears or fails internally, operators typically notice slipping under load, excessive heat buildup, loss of drive power, or transmission damage — all of which can sideline a machine and compromise safe material handling on the jobsite.
