The Genie 88887GT is a genuine OEM Wheel Drive 56:1 2WD designed for Genie S-series telescopic boom lifts and Z-series articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this drive unit meets the original engineering specifications and slots into the drive system without adaptation, covering a wide range of models including the S-60, S-60 XC, S-60 TRAX, S-65, S-65 XC, S-65 TRAX, S-80 J, Z-60/34, and Z-62/40. Cross-reference part number 88887GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Drive Ratio Integrity — Built to the original 56:1 gear reduction spec, ensuring the torque output and travel speed your boom lift was engineered to deliver.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting configuration and interface, allowing the drive unit to seat and connect as the factory unit did.
- Broad S and Z Boom Compatibility — Fits a wide range of Genie telescopic and articulating boom lift models, including S-60 XC, S-60 TRAX, S-65 TRAX, S-65 XC, S-80 J, Z-60/34, and Z-62/40.
- Restored Traction and Drive Performance — A worn or failed wheel drive unit can cause sluggish travel, uneven propulsion, or complete loss of drive; this replacement restores full two-wheel-drive function.
- Operational Safety on Grade — Proper wheel drive function is critical for controlled machine travel on slopes and uneven terrain — a correctly operating drive unit helps the machine respond predictably to operator input.
A wheel drive unit is a gearbox assembly mounted at the wheel hub that converts motor output into the rotational force needed to propel the machine. The 56:1 gear reduction ratio means the motor turns 56 times for every single revolution of the wheel, multiplying torque to give the boom lift the pulling power it needs to move under load across a range of ground conditions. When this component wears out or fails, the affected wheel loses drive force, leading to reduced travel capability, difficulty climbing grades, or the machine becoming unable to move under its own power — making timely replacement essential for keeping the unit operational and safe to use.
