Flat Washer - Golf Lift - 30400-1005C — a direct-fit replacement replacement hardware. Ordering the replacement hardware from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.
Specifications
- Part number: ALS-7248-1016
- Type: Genuine OEM replacement hardware
When a lift gets its annual inspection, the hardware is where a trained eye lingers. Inspectors look for exactly the things this bucket of parts is bought to fix: pins with visible slop, sheaves wobbling on worn bushings, copper-colored bushing material creeping out the side of a sheave, lock springs too tired to snap a pawl home, and chains with tight links or visible stretch. Every one of those is a write-up, and every write-up is a bay out of service until the fix is documented. The economics are lopsided: the hardware costs little, the failed inspection costs the downtime, and the difference between the two outcomes is usually a walk-around you can do yourself in ten minutes.
Ordering the right revision
Before this goes in the cart, grab two things off your lift: the model number and the serial number, both on the manufacturer's plate. The serial matters more than most people expect — lift makers revise components between production runs without renaming the lift, and the run your serial falls in determines which revision of this part is correct.
If you are working from a failed part rather than a plate, measure what you have and photograph how it mounts. Send that to us along with the lift brand, and we will check it against the same parts breakdowns our own techs use in the field before you commit to the order.
Do the inspector’s hardware pass: grab each sheave and try to wobble it by hand with the load off — real wobble is a worn pin or bushing. Look for bushing material showing at the sides of sheaves. Cycle the locks and watch that every pawl snaps back smartly; a lazy pawl is a spring. Look for bright rub marks and metal dust anywhere parts move against each other.
A lock pawl with a weak or broken return spring can fail to engage while looking perfectly normal from the floor. Anything in the lock train — springs, pins, pawls — gets replaced on condition, immediately, not monitored. The locks are the part of the lift that catches everything else.

About this 30400 flat washer
The 30400 flat washer is a direct-fit replacement engineered to restore original manufacturer performance on the lift model it services. Every piece we ship carries the exact dimensional and material specifications the OEM published for that application. Fitment on this component is critical: it interfaces with adjacent hardware in ways that any deviation from spec can drive premature wear on nearby parts or trigger the lift's mechanical safety systems into an unexpected condition. Shops that source this from us instead of a generic aftermarket substitute consistently report zero fitment issues on first-time installation.
Technical specification & installation notes
Torque and installation notes for this component follow the manufacturer's service manual. Where a torque value is called out, use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the tightening sequence the manual publishes for that fastener location — many lift assemblies require star-pattern or crosswise tightening to distribute load evenly. Skipping that step is one of the most common reasons a correctly-sourced 30400 flat washer still ends up needing to be re-serviced within a year. Our tech line at 800-674-9302 will walk your installer through the procedure if the shop does not have the current service manual on hand.
Shipping & ordering
Shipping runs 3-5 business days on standard ground to the lower 48 states. Expedited overnight and two-day options are available; call 800-674-9302 before ordering to quote expedited freight. We stock the 30400 flat washer in Iowa and ship same-day for orders confirmed before 2 PM Central. Orders that come in later than that or on a Friday afternoon pick up on the next business day. A tracking number gets emailed to the address on the order the moment the package leaves our dock.
Warranty coverage
Every 30400 flat washer sold through Automotive Lift Services carries a one-year manufacturer-defect warranty. If it fails within that window due to a defect in material or workmanship, we replace it at no charge. Damage from improper installation, use outside the lift's rated capacity, side-loading, or modifications to the parent lift are not covered. The warranty is documented on your original order receipt — retain that record for the coverage period. To submit a warranty claim, contact us with the order number and a photo of the failure at [email protected].
Cross-reference & fitment
Alternate applications for the 30400 flat washer sometimes exist. Where a common part fits multiple lift models across a manufacturer's catalog, cross-reference sheets show the compatible models explicitly. If you are consolidating parts stock and want to know which of your lifts the piece covers, email the request to [email protected] with a list of the lift models in your bay — we return a compatibility grid showing which lifts accept the replacement and which need a different number.
