The Genie 229961GT Steering Column Weldment is a genuine OEM structural assembly designed for the GTH-844 and GTH-1056 telehandlers. Sourced directly from Genie, this weldment delivers an exact match to the original component, ensuring correct mounting geometry and steering system integration right out of the box. It is the direct replacement for worn, bent, or damaged steering columns on these machines, confirming compatibility with both GTH models without modification or adaptation. If you need to verify part number 229961GT against your service documentation before ordering, cross-reference it with your GTH parts manual to confirm the correct application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Fabricated to Genie's original weld and material specifications, so the structural integrity and dimensional accuracy of the steering column are maintained exactly as designed for these telehandlers.
- Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Engineered to align with the original mounting points and steering linkage on GTH-844 and GTH-1056 machines, allowing a straightforward swap with no custom fitting.
- Confirmed Telehandler Fitment — Purpose-built for the GTH-844 and GTH-1056 Genie telehandlers, so you can order with confidence knowing this weldment is the right assembly for your machine.
- Restored Steering Response — A damaged or distorted steering column weldment introduces play and misalignment into the steering system; replacing it with this assembly restores the direct, predictable handling these machines require during material handling operations.
- Operator Safety Relevance — The steering column is a primary control-path component on a telehandler. A structurally sound weldment is essential to maintaining safe, controlled machine movement on the jobsite.
The steering column weldment is the structural backbone of the telehandler's steering system, connecting the operator's steering input at the wheel to the hydraulic steering mechanism below. It holds the steering shaft in the correct angular position and absorbs the mechanical loads transferred through the column during operation. When this weldment is cracked, bent, or worn at its mounting points, steering feel becomes vague or unpredictable — and in severe cases, control of the machine's direction can be compromised entirely. Replacing a damaged weldment with this genuine OEM assembly brings the steering system back to its original operating condition.
