BT Forklift Parts

If you're searching for BT forklift parts, it helps to know what this page holds before you order. It lists 478 parts, and the biggest group is hydraulic unit parts for the L2000, L2300 and LHM230, models that our listings call pallet jacks. Nearly every listing names BT or Prime Mover: most name BT, about 100 name Prime Mover and 37 name both.

A listing that says "FOR BT" or "FOR Prime Mover" describes a part made to fit that equipment, not a part made by BT. The names are there so you can match a part to your machine. The sections below sort the page by what you are fixing, so you can skip straight to it.

BT Forklift Parts by Group

Hydraulic unit parts are the largest group, with 102 listings, followed by about 65 frame parts, 53 listings that name a controller and 42 washers. Bolts and capscrews come to 32 and listings that name handles to 30, while pins come to 26, nuts to 25 and pistons and rings together to 24. Smaller groups include 23 bearings, 22 kits, 18 bushings, 16 axles, 15 load wheels and 8 listings that name a steer wheel or steering. The groups overlap: 23 of the 26 pins and 16 of the 18 bushings are listed for a hydraulic unit, a frame or the L series handles, so they sit in two counts.

Several of these groups have a wider collection that covers other makes as well. The forklift cylinder page lists about 3,500, forklift bearings about 1,300, forklift pins about 960, and handles, pedals and body parts about 990. For hardware, see the forklift washers, forklift nuts and forklift bolts pages.

Hydraulic Unit Parts for L2000, L2300 and LHM230

These listings lead with a short part number and then name the unit the part belongs to, as in "47037 TOP NUT FOR BT L2000, L2300, L2000-U AND L2300-U HYDRAULIC UNIT". Of the 102 hydraulic unit listings, about 55 name the L2000 and L2300 together and about 50 name the LHM230, so the model named in the listing decides which set applies.

Inside the unit, parts are listed one at a time: nuts, washers, release pins, roller pins, scrapers and springs. Examples include "20461 ROLLER PIN FOR BT LHM230 HYDRAULIC UNIT", "21060 SCRAPER FOR BT LHM230 HYDRAULIC UNIT" and "47051 RELEASE PIN FOR BT L2000, L2300, L2000-U AND L2300-U HYDRAULIC UNIT".

Kits are here too. "243772 COMPLETE SEAL KIT FOR BT LHM230 HYDRAULIC UNIT" is one of 22 kits on the page, and "22306 PUMP KIT FOR BT L2000, L2300, L2000-U AND L2300-U HYDRAULIC UNIT" is another. A complete seal kit bundles several seals under one number.

Frame, Handle and Wheel Parts

About 65 listings are frame parts, and each one names the frame it belongs to. Examples are "126131 PUSH ROD AXLE FOR BT L2000-U AND L2300-U FRAME" and "47151 SLEEVE FOR BT L2000 AND FOR L2300 FRAME". Handles are worded the same way: 24 listings name the BT L series handles, such as "47089 SPRING FOR BT L SERIES HANDLES" and "173754 CONTROL LEVER FOR BT L SERIES HANDLES". In both groups, the part number plus the frame or handle name usually narrows the search.

Wheels and bearings follow a different pattern. Load wheel kits name the truck, as in "BT Prime Mover PMX45 Walkie Electric Pallet Jack Load Wheel Kit", and the page also has 16 axles and 23 bearings. More than half of those bearings, 13 listings, are skid steer bearings, such as "BT LIFT QN35A12631 Skid Steer Bearing". For steering, the forklift steering parts page lists about 250.

BT Controllers, Cards and Repair Listings

Controllers are the third-largest group at 53 listings, with 11 more listings for cards that do not name a controller. Repair listings are worded much like new ones: 68 listings on the page say "repair" and most of those are controllers, logic cards or displays. "FOR BT PRIME MOVER 311468-000 CONTROLLER -REPAIR" is a repair listing, not a new controller, so read the whole name before you order. Listings without the word, like "FOR BT PRIME MOVER 305804 CONTROLLER", are the controllers themselves.

Some controller listings also name the controller maker, such as "FOR BT 306777-000 CURTIS CONTROLLER REPAIR". The Curtis controller page has about 290 listings and the forklift controller page about 4,100.

Hardware and Other Makes in the Same Listings

Plain hardware is listed under both names: washers, bolts, capscrews, nuts and screws, plus drain plugs, gaskets, O-rings and hose clamps. Examples are "For BT Washer - Flat 20348", "For Prime Mover Nut - Jam 20081", "For BT Plug - Drain 300947-025" and "For BT Gasket - Oil Fill 21408". Eight hex bolt numbers are listed under both names, as "For BT Bolt - Hex 20306" and "For Prime Mover Bolt - Hex 20306".

A few listings name a second make next to BT or Prime Mover: Raymond appears in 8 listings, Curtis in 8 and Lift-Rite in 3. They include a seal kit worded "FOR BT Seal Kit 243772 for LHM230, FOR Lift-Rite Titan Series" and the interphase listing "FOR RAYMOND / BT / PRIME MOVER 312430-000A INTERPHASE". Six repair listings name Atlas or Atlas Copco. Single listings name Impco, as in "FOR BT 0064581CE, FOR IMPCO MODEL COBRA LP CONVERTER REGULATOR VAPORIZER", and Toyota, as in "Service Tool 179915 FOR BT Prime Mover FOR Toyota". The Raymond forklift parts page has about 730 listings and Lift-Rite pallet jack parts about 80.

Reading BT and Prime Mover Part Numbers

There are two common shapes. Hydraulic unit and frame parts lead with a short number of five or six digits, such as 47037 or 126131. Controllers and many other parts use a dashed number with a three-digit ending, like 300203-000 or 311468-000. Some 90 listings carry a dashed number, and "-000" is the most common ending, at 25.

The same part is often listed under both names. "For BT O-Ring 20521" and "For Prime Mover O-Ring 20521" carry one number, and the skid steer bearing appears as QN35A12631 and as N-35A12631. Because of that, search by part number at the top of any page, or browse by manufacturer if you only know the make. When the number is gone, search the part name plus the model, such as "spring LHM230".

BT Forklift Parts FAQ

Why are there pallet jack parts on a forklift page?

Many of the BT and Prime Mover listings are for pallet jacks: the L2000, L2300 and LHM230 units, plus the PMX45 and SMX45 walkie electric models. The page also holds skid steer bearings, so check the model in the listing rather than the name of the page.

Why do some listings name Raymond or Curtis?

Some listings name a second make next to BT or Prime Mover. Curtis is the controller maker in "FOR BT 306777-000 CURTIS CONTROLLER REPAIR", and Raymond is a second make in "FOR Raymond BT Prime Mover Axle 47133". Look at the make after "For" in each listing, then match the part number, before you order.

Which model should I use to search hydraulic unit parts?

Use the model on your jack. Listings word the L2000 and L2300 together with their -U versions, and the LHM230 parts are listed on their own.

What if my BT part is not listed?
