The Genie 87047GT is a genuine OEM Engine Short Front Wear Pad designed for the GS-2668 RT and GS-3268 RT rough-terrain scissor lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this wear pad matches the original component specification, ensuring it seats and functions exactly as the machine was built to require. Cross-reference part number 87047GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. When the wear pad wears down, scissor stack components can make metal-to-metal contact, accelerating damage and compromising smooth scissor operation — replacing it promptly keeps the lift running as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Match — Manufactured to the same wear-resistant material grade as the original, delivering the correct hardness and surface friction profile for scissor stack contact points on rough-terrain machines.
- Drop-In Replacement — Profiles and mounting geometry align directly with the engine-short front position on the scissor stack, allowing straightforward installation without reworking mounting hardware.
- Targeted RT Scissor Fitment — Built specifically for the GS-2668 RT and GS-3268 RT rough-terrain scissor lifts, which operate on uneven ground where wear pads absorb greater lateral and vertical stress than standard slab models.
- Protects Structural Components — A functioning wear pad acts as a sacrificial buffer between scissor arm contact surfaces. Replacing a worn pad on schedule prevents scored or gouged scissor arms that are far costlier to address.
- Operational Safety on Rough Terrain — Worn or missing wear pads on rough-terrain scissor lifts can introduce unwanted play into the scissor stack during elevation, affecting platform stability. This genuine replacement restores the designed contact and support between scissor components.
Wear pads are sacrificial components positioned at contact points within the scissor stack to cushion and guide movement as the platform raises and lowers. On rough-terrain models like the GS-2668 RT and GS-3268 RT, these pads endure higher stress loads due to uneven surface operation, causing them to wear faster than on slab-grade machines. When a wear pad deteriorates, direct metal-to-metal contact between scissor arm surfaces can cause accelerated wear, noise, and reduced smoothness of travel — and in more advanced cases, structural damage to the scissor arms themselves. Replacing the pad at the first sign of wear is a low-cost maintenance step that protects the integrity of the entire scissor assembly.
