The Genie 104148GT is a genuine OEM Midpivot Cradle Wearpad designed for the Genie TZ-34/20 trailer-mounted articulating boom lift. Sourced directly from Genie, this wearpad carries the same specifications as the component installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, secure fit at the midpivot cradle interface. Cross-reference part number 104148GT against your TZ-34/20 parts manual to confirm this is the right component for your machine before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to the same wear-resistant material specification as the original, maintaining correct contact surface hardness at the midpivot cradle.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Seats into the midpivot cradle position of the TZ-34/20 the same way the original did, requiring no rework or shimming.
- Confirmed Fitment for the TZ-34/20 — Verified OEM fitment for the Genie TZ-34/20 trailer-mounted articulating boom lift.
- Protects Structural Pivot Components — A properly conditioned wearpad absorbs friction and contact stress at the cradle, protecting the surrounding metalwork from accelerated wear.
- Boom Articulation Safety — On an aerial boom lift, worn or displaced cradle wearpads can introduce play into the pivot assembly, affecting boom stability and load control at height. Replacing this part on schedule is a direct operational safety measure.
The midpivot cradle wearpad sits at the pivot point where the boom's mid-section articulates, acting as a sacrificial bearing surface between moving steel components. Its job is to absorb the friction and contact load generated as the boom cycles through its range of motion, preventing metal-on-metal wear that would damage costlier structural parts. When this wearpad wears thin or breaks down, operators may notice increased play in the boom articulation, uneven movement, or audible contact noise — all signs that replacement is overdue and that continued operation could compromise both component integrity and safe working height.
