    Need a used Piston and Jug for a Husky 50

    Do you know what years this works on? I have an older Model 50 Rancher (white top) and a Partner 5000 cylinder will not bolt in without either opening the hole in the crankcase slightly or turning down the diameter of the cylinder base. Does the later Husky 50 have a larger diameter cylinder...

    Wanted: Partner 5000

    Interesting... I was under the impression that they were basically the same saw with the same bore and stroke (?)

    which .325 chain?

    I've been on a search for the best .325 chain myself. I've tried 1. Carlton KL 2. Oregon LG 3. Oregon LP 4. Windsor LJ (on the advise of Mr. Galer). The Windsor (also available as Laser C-series I think) has the largest, most aggressive .325 cutter without the psuedo-wank links of the...

    Partner 5000 Carhartted, If it's got a black top, it's probably a 500. I may still be interested. Lemme know. Tony, I sent you an e-mail.

    Husky 50 vs. 50 Special

    Hmmm... OK, so are the 50 Special and the 51 the same saw? The reason I'm asking is that if the Jonsered 490/590 and Partner 5000 jugs will fit on a Husky 50, then will they also fit the 50 Special and/or 51? Dead 51s are a dime a dozen. Thanks!

    the best saw?

    I'd take a look at the J. Deere CS62 for under $400 at:http://chainsaws4u.com 4.7hp, 12.4 lb. powerhead. Same as the Efco 962.

    Husky 50 vs. 50 Special

    Swedish Inbreeding Anybody here know the relationship between the 50s and the Partner 500/5000 and Jonsered 490/590? I hear a Husky 50 will really squeal with a loop-port jug from a 5000 or 490 on her. Faster than either of the parent saws, even. I'm lookin for an older saw to run in a local...

    Husky 50 vs. 50 Special

    Can anybody tell me the difference between the 50 and 50 Special, circa late-80s? Different part nos. are listed for piston and cylinder. Are they the same cc? Porting different? Thanks!

    Comparing Husky 55R to Stihl MS290

    Of the two, I'd go with the 55R. Couple of points, though. That price on the Husky seems pretty high. Most dealers list them at about $320. Available on the web for under $300 w/shipping. See if you can't work on the dealer a little. The 55R comes with a spur sprocket, too, but it's easy enough...

    Ideal Powerhead For A 24"-28" Bar

    Thought I'd post links to a couple of screamin' deals on bigger saws I've seen. Either of these oughta pull a 28" bar in hardwood no problem: Poulan Pro 505 (Swedish, Yellow Jonsered 2083) $499 Solo 690 , 90cc, 7.4hp $449 I understand the factory reconditioned thing is a loophole to sell...

    stihl replacement bars

    Re: Mailorder I just wanted to add my vote for Jeff Sikkema at snssawshop.com. I was looking for a 14" bar for my Husky and wrote Jeff. He found that the GB ProTop (what I wanted) was only available in 3/8 pitch in 14". He replaced the sprocket tip to .325 for free (busting his breaker in the...
