Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the torsion bar end and bushing assembly used for?
A: The torsion bar end and bushing (38925) connect the torsion bar to the mast structure and wheel assembly on electric lift trucks. This component provides torsional rigidity and lateral support for the mast system.
Q: Which lift truck models use torsion bar end 38925?
A: This end and bushing assembly is compatible with electric pallet jacks and stackers from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale that use torsion bar suspension. Verify your truck model and serial range before ordering.
Q: What material is the bushing made from?
A: The bushing is typically made from nylon or similar polymer composite to provide cushioning and reduce noise while allowing controlled movement. This design absorbs vibration and extends torsion bar life.
Q: What signs indicate torsion bar end and bushing wear?
A: Worn bushings cause excessive play in the mast, creaking or popping sounds during lift operation, mast wobbling, or visible separation between components. These symptoms indicate replacement is needed.
Q: How often does this bushing need replacement?
A: Bushing lifespan depends on truck usage intensity and maintenance. High-cycle operations may require replacement every 2 to 5 years. Inspect annually for cracking, hardening, or separation from the end fitting.
