Cross-reference part number 218496GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Gear Ratio — Built to a precise 76:1 reduction ratio, matching the original drivetrain specification so traction and travel speed perform exactly as designed.
- Integrated Brake Assembly — The brake is incorporated directly into the drive unit, allowing this single component to restore both propulsion control and parking brake function in one installation.
- Broad SX and S-Series Compatibility — Fits Genie's largest telescopic boom lift models, including the SX-150, SX-180, SX-135 XC, SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, S-120, S-125, S-100, and S-105.
- Genuine Genie OEM Part — Sourced directly from Genie, this component meets the material and tolerance standards of the original drive assembly, supporting the long-term integrity of the drive system.
- Safety-Critical Function — On large telescopic boom lifts, the wheel drive and brake assembly is a primary motion-control and hold component; a worn or failed unit can compromise both drive performance and the machine's ability to hold position on grade.
The wheel drive with brake is a gearbox and braking assembly mounted at each driven wheel of the boom lift, converting hydraulic motor output into controlled ground-level traction through its 76:1 gear reduction. The integrated brake holds the machine stationary when drive pressure is released, which is essential for safe operation on slopes and uneven terrain. When this assembly wears or fails, operators may experience loss of drive power, uncontrolled machine movement, or a brake that no longer holds reliably — all conditions that require immediate attention on any large telescopic boom lift.
