CR 073467

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the CR 073467 shim and what is its function?
A: The CR 073467 is a Crown OEM precision shim used in electric lift truck subassemblies to control clearance and alignment between stacked components. Shims are thin metal or composite spacers that adjust the gap between parts to ensure proper fit, function, and load distribution in drive mechanisms, motor mounts, or pivot assemblies.

Q: What thickness is the CR 073467 shim?
A: The CR 073467 shim thickness is determined by Crown design specifications for the specific assembly location. Common shim thicknesses in lift truck applications range from 0.010 inches to 0.125 inches, but the exact specification depends on the subassembly and clearance requirements. Contact us with your truck model and assembly details for the precise thickness needed.

Q: Which Crown truck models use the CR 073467 shim?
A: The CR 073467 is an OEM replacement shim for Crown electric lift truck subassemblies. It is used in multiple model generations but specific compatibility depends on the subassembly location and truck configuration. Verify your Crown truck model and serial number before ordering to confirm this is the correct shim for your application.

Q: What material is the CR 073467 shim made from?
A: The CR 073467 shim is typically manufactured from steel or precision composite material selected for rigidity and durability in electric lift truck subassemblies. The material choice depends on the specific application load and environmental conditions within the truck. Steel shims provide maximum strength for high-load applications; composite shims may be used where vibration damping is beneficial.

Q: When should the CR 073467 shim be replaced?
A: Replace the CR 073467 shim if diagnostic inspection reveals excessive clearance or misalignment in the subassembly, if the shim shows permanent deformation or bending, or if component movement or rattling indicates shim wear or failure. A worn shim can degrade truck performance and accelerate wear on adjacent parts.

Q: Can I substitute the CR 073467 with a shim of different thickness?
A: No. The CR 073467 shim thickness is engineered for precise clearance control in its specific Crown subassembly. Substituting a thicker or thinner shim will alter clearance, cause misalignment, and compromise component function and durability. Always order the exact OEM part number to maintain Crown design specifications and truck performance.
