Good afternoon
I recently bought a used 261cm that came with a stock 20” bar. I’d like to put a 18” bar on it and am leaning towards a Tsumura 18” light weight bar and maybe a 3/8 chain. Prob is that I’ve run a saw a fair amount but never made any changes to a saw. Always kept “as is”. Currently a 20” stihl bar (.325 and .063). I think 81 links.
I’ve done some searching online but am a little confused. Found a 18” bar but don’t know if my sprocket would work with it. Tried the search function on the site but am still new to it so I’m sure I’m doing it wrong. I’m guessing I would need to replace the sprocket.
Any recommendations or links so I can read up and educate myself would be much appreciated
thanks
