The LiftMaster K081C0168 Screw Drive Rack is a replacement component for select LiftMaster and Chamberlain screw-drive garage door openers. The rack engages with the opener’s screw-drive system to move the carriage along the rail during opening and closing.
A worn or damaged rack may cause the opener carriage to slip, grind, skip or stop moving correctly. Replacing the damaged rack can restore proper engagement and smoother opener travel when the remaining rail and drive components are in serviceable condition.

Installation & Safety
Disconnect electrical power to the garage door opener before servicing the rail or drive system. Inspect the screw drive, carriage, rail and related components for damage or excessive wear before installing the replacement rack.
The garage door should move smoothly and remain properly balanced when operated manually. A binding or improperly balanced door can place excessive stress on the opener and damage the replacement components.
