how many drivers for 28" bar

[parrisw]

I need to know how many chain links I need, it doesn't say on the bar. Its a 28" 3/8 .058 D009 husky mount. Is there an easy way to figure it out.

If'n it was a Stihl I could tell yah. But a Husky? Sorry.

92


"edit" Wait, I should ask what brand bar. I don't know why but the Oregon book list 92 for a .058 and 93 for .050 and .063

Most large-mount Husky saws take 93 drivers on a 28" bar.

Yep, my 28" .050 bar does, don't know why the book is showing 92 for a .058 bar......

Where is a good place to get a good deal on joiners for saw chain. I got a bunch of chains here, that need to be fixed, and or shortened for my needs.

Some of the earlier saws had a slightly shorter crankcase span and the books will show older specs for obsolete applications like .058" gauge.

On both my 7900s and my huskies, with a 7 pin I run 92 dl on a 28 incher. Fits easily and gives more adjustment.

Especially the 7900s.

I am talking 3/8 .050.

What brands you got? I can throw in some presets and tie straps with your 371 parts.

I've found it very helpful to shorten chains after a few shifts of cutting on my Huskies down to 92, after the chain has had time to stretch itself.

Well, my dealer just got his new Oregon catalog in and he gave me his old one, and it says 92 links for large mount bars in .058.

I don't think its right either, but thats what it says.

Do it again, look up for a 394xp, 28" .058 and see what comes up.

Interesting;

I run 94 links of 35 RSF on my 28" Oregon bar (288---D009). 8 pin rim, still tons of adjustment, internal clutch (372/385)

If you need a bunch of b!tch links for 3/8 stihl, I have a bag full!
