The Genie 71841GT is a genuine OEM Upper Ext Inner Wear Pad designed for GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2668 DC, and GS-3268 DC rough-terrain and electric scissor lifts. As a direct Genie OEM component, this wear pad is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part installed at the factory, ensuring an exact match to the scissor stack geometry on these machines. Cross-reference part number 71841GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. Keeping this wear pad in good condition is essential to the smooth, controlled extension of the scissor arm assembly on these heavy-duty GS-series lifts.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Produced to Genie's OEM specification for wear-surface hardness and load-bearing capacity, so the pad holds up under the cyclic stress of repeated scissor extension and retraction.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat precisely in the upper extension inner wear pad position of the scissor stack, with no custom fitting or rework needed at installation.
- Confirmed Fitment for GS RT and DC Models — Fits GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2668 DC, and GS-3268 DC scissor lifts — Genie's larger rough-terrain and electric drive GS-series platforms.
- Smooth Scissor Extension — A correctly fitted wear pad reduces metal-on-metal contact between scissor arm components during extension, keeping movement fluid and protecting structural surfaces from accelerated wear.
- Platform Stability and Operator Safety — Worn or missing upper extension wear pads allow lateral play in the scissor arm, which can affect platform stability at height — making timely replacement a genuine safety consideration on aerial work platforms.
Wear pads in a scissor lift act as sacrificial bearing surfaces between the nested scissor arm tubes, guiding the extension and retraction of the stack while preventing direct steel-to-steel contact. On the GS-2668 and GS-3268 models, the upper extension inner wear pad sits at a high-load position within the scissor assembly, absorbing side loads and keeping the arms aligned as the platform rises. When this pad wears through, the scissor arms begin to bind or shift laterally, causing uneven extension, increased stress on the structural weldments, and noticeable instability in the elevated platform — all signs that replacement is overdue.
