Very regrettably, I bought myself a 1998-vintage Genie® towable boom-type lift, a very early Model TMZ-34/19, a couple years back. The thing was bought used and abused (and very badly butchered/horribly maintained) out of a rental place in Connecticut. Turned out to be in far worse shape than I ever dreamed was possible... but the price was right (all the $$$ I had) and I was in very desperate need at the time. Little did I know how much time, money and effort it was going to take to make it minimally safe and workable again. Anyway, that's the background story.
My question for today is this: Does anyone know what brand(s) of hydraulic components might have been used by Genie on such a beast in that 1998-ish timeframe? I can't find any names on any hydraulic components other than the hoses.
Genie parts are in very short supply for this old beast and what is available through the Genie dealers is extraordinarily expensive. Any hint(s) that might lead me to the original source for the many hydraulic components I need to replace would be most appreciated. Thanks!
