The Genie 71839GT is a genuine OEM Upper Guide 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 matches the original material grade and geometry specified for the GS68 scissor platform, ensuring the scissor stack moves as it was engineered to. Cross-reference part number 71839GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm fitment for your serial range before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Material Match — Manufactured to the same wear-resistant compound as the original, maintaining the correct friction and compression characteristics for the upper guide channel.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the exact profile of the GS68 upper guide channel, so the pad seats correctly without shimming or modification.
- Targeted Scissor Lift Fitment — Confirmed fit for Genie GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2668 DC, and GS-3268 DC models, covering both rough-terrain and electric drive variants of the wide-deck GS series.
- Smooth, Controlled Lift Travel — A correctly fitted wear pad keeps lateral play in the scissor arms within spec, preventing the binding, uneven travel, and platform drift that a worn pad allows.
- Platform Stability at Height — On aerial scissor lifts, excessive guide wear translates directly to platform instability at elevation; replacing this pad on schedule is a genuine structural and operational safety measure.
The upper guide wear pad sits at the top of the scissor arm stack, cushioning and guiding the scissor arms as the platform raises and lowers. It controls lateral movement within the guide channel, keeping the scissor assembly aligned and preventing metal-on-metal contact between the arm and the frame. When this pad wears through, the scissor arms develop side-to-side play that accelerates damage to surrounding structural components and causes the platform to feel unstable — making timely replacement essential for both machine longevity and safe operation at height.
