Husqvarna 350 rim sprocket worm gear

I converted my Husqvarna 350 spur sprocket to a rim sprocket. Can you get a worm gear for the oil pump that fits the rim sprocket. The worm gear that comes on the saw with the spur sprocket works but it is a slopply fit.

Ipls don't show a rim sprocket or worm gear for a 350. However a 351 worm gear for a rim sprocket is 503892102. Don't know if it will work on a 350. My guess is yes.

I'm betting is does too. I just ordered one. Thanks. Will let you know if it fits.

Wrong guess. The depth of the gears are different for the plastic case vs metal case saws.

There really is no gear for the 350 or 340/345 that's intended for a rim set up. Other than living with that sloppy fit, there is no option available.

That hurts. I guess I will order another spur gear in case the sloppy fit buggers it up. It oils fine with it now. Just can't go back to a spur once you've used a rim.
