The Genie 232971GT is a genuine OEM #4 Extension Guide Sheave Weldment designed for Genie SX-150 and SX-180 super-boom telescopic lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this weldment delivers an exact-fit replacement that matches the original assembly in geometry, material, and mounting configuration. Cross-reference part number 232971GT against your SX-series parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. If you're servicing a super-boom and the sheave guide is worn, bent, or otherwise compromised, this is the correct replacement component to restore full boom function.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Fabricated to the same weld geometry and steel specification as the original, ensuring the sheave seats and tracks correctly within the extension boom section.
- Direct Boom-Section Replacement — Designed to mount in the #4 extension position of SX-series super-booms, allowing straightforward installation without modification to surrounding hardware.
- Fits SX-150 and SX-180 Super-Booms — Verified fitment for Genie's tallest telescopic boom lift models, covering both machines in the SX super-boom range.
- Maintains Proper Cable and Sheave Alignment — A correctly installed guide sheave weldment keeps the boom extension cables tracking true, supporting smooth, consistent telescoping through the full range of motion.
- Structural Integrity at Height — On super-boom lifts operating at extreme platform heights, a damaged or misaligned sheave weldment can affect extension control and load handling — replacing it promptly with an OEM part preserves safe, predictable boom operation.
The guide sheave weldment is a structural boom component that supports and routes the extension cables as the boom telescopes in and out. In the #4 extension section of an SX super-boom, this weldment holds the sheave in precise alignment so that cable tension is distributed evenly during lifting and extension cycles. When the weldment is bent, cracked, or worn, cable routing becomes inconsistent, which places uneven stress on the extension system and can lead to erratic or incomplete boom travel — making timely replacement essential for maintaining normal operation.
