Wheeltronic 6-0169 Self Threading Screw
The Wheeltronic 6-0169 replacement hardware is the direct replacement for the Wheeltronic lift it came off of. Cross-referenced as ALS-7806-10, it is the genuine Wheeltronic part — same part number, same fit, and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the Wheeltronic 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-7806-10 Brand: Wheeltronic Type: Genuine OEM replacement hardware Hardware is the easiest category to order wrong, because so much of it looks generic — a pin is a pin until it is an eighth of an inch short and the e-clip groove lands inside the bore. Lift makers change hardware dimensions between production runs without renaming the lift, so the part that fits a given model can split by serial range. Order from your lift’s data tag — model and serial — rather than from the model name or from a lookalike photo. If the tag is gone, the old hardware itself is the spec: measure it, or photograph it next to a tape measure and send it to us, and we will match it before it ships. Related parts for this lift The parts below are commonly ordered alongside this one — cables, sheaves, seals, and hardware wear on similar schedules, and most repairs go faster when the whole set is done in one visit.

Manufacturers change sub-parts between production runs while keeping the same lift model name, so "it fits my lift model" is not always enough. The model plate carries the serial number that pins your lift to a specific run, and that is the number that settles which version of this part belongs on your lift. Can't find the plate? Measure the old part — overall length, bolt-hole spacing, thread size on anything threaded — and photograph it from a couple of angles. Send that with your lift's brand and rough age and we will match it against the parts breakdowns we service from every week. Measure the old part before you order and again against the new part when it arrives: overall length, diameter, groove and cross-hole locations, and thread size on anything threaded. On threaded hardware, run the nut on by hand first — if it fights, check for welding slag or damaged threads and clean them up with a file rather than powering the nut on and wrecking both parts. Close is not correct on load-bearing hardware. A pin that is slightly undersized hammers its bore oval; a bolt of the wrong grade shears under a load the right one shrugs off. If what arrived does not match what came out, install nothing and call — guessing is the one move with no good outcome. Why buy your Wheeltronic replacement hardware from Auto Lift Services We install, inspect, and repair Wheeltronic lifts every week — the ALS-7806-10 is a part we handle in the shop, not a random SKU we drop-ship. The phone answers if you have a question mid-install — call 800-674-9302. We confirm the right part for your lift's serial and production year before you order. Every part ships as genuine Wheeltronic — no aftermarket substitution unless you specifically ask for an aftermarket equivalent. If you also need companion wear items — cables, sheaves, seals, hardware — for the same repair, use our parts lookup and we will build the whole kit for your lift so you order once and finish the job. About this 0169 wheeltronic self Sourcing the correct 0169 wheeltronic self is not the spot a shop wants to gamble. This piece sits inside a load path the lift manufacturer engineered to specific tolerances, and a substitute that looks close but is off by even a small margin can transfer load onto a neighboring component that was not designed for it. We stock this exact part to the OEM specification the original manufacturer publishes, which is why techs who have been through a bad aftermarket cycle keep coming back to us for the same replacement whenever their next need comes up. Technical specification & installation notes Cycle life on this piece depends heavily on operating conditions. In a typical commercial repair shop running 6-10 lifts per day, the 0169 wheeltronic self should deliver five to eight years of service before showing measurable wear against the OEM inspection specification. In a high-volume tire or alignment shop running 20+ lifts per day per bay, expect service every three to five years. It is designed to be a serviceable component; when it does wear it wears within safe operating margins that trigger visible symptoms — drift, uneven wear, minor leakage — well before failure becomes a safety issue. 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 0169 wheeltronic self 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 0169 wheeltronic self 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 0169 wheeltronic self 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.
