The Wacker Neuson 5000172978 is a genuine OEM Bracket designed for the LTW series light towers, covering LTW6K, LTW8K, LTW20Z1, and LTW20Z3 model families across standard, cold weather, custom, and variable-speed configurations. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this bracket matches the original component in material, dimensions, and mounting interface — ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation. Fitment spans Tier 4i and Tier 4 Final emissions configurations, including LED, metal halide, skidded, and RFR variants. If your light tower is in the LTW family, part number 5000172978 is the verified OEM replacement.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specifications, so the bracket seats and aligns exactly as the original did at assembly.
- Broad LTW Series Coverage — Fits LTW6K, LTW8K, LTW20Z1, and LTW20Z3 light towers across standard, cold weather, custom, variable-speed, and skidded configurations in both Tier 4 and Tier 4i emissions ratings.
- Drop-In Mounting Interface — Uses the original mounting points and hole pattern, so installation requires only standard hand tools with no drilling, shimming, or fabrication.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — A correctly fitted bracket maintains proper alignment of the components it supports; a damaged or missing bracket can allow movement, vibration stress, and premature wear on adjacent parts.
- Verified Part Number — Part number 5000172978 is the active Wacker Neuson OEM reference across the full LTW product line, giving you confidence you are ordering the correct part the first time.
A bracket is a structural mounting component that holds, positions, or secures another part or assembly in its correct location within the machine. On a light tower like the LTW series, brackets play a key role in keeping components stable during transport and operation — where engine vibration and road movement constantly stress every connection point. When a bracket cracks, bends, or goes missing, the component it supports can shift out of position, accelerate wear on surrounding hardware, or fail entirely. Replacing a damaged bracket promptly with the correct OEM part restores the structural support the assembly was engineered around.
