    Dolmar 5105 Snellerized Style

    I was to lazy to gut the 5105 like I did my 7310, not the same I know, so I instead just put a muffler from a 5100 on it. Just weighing the two side by side was an amazing difference.

    Laser Saw Bar

    So a friend found this and I've never seen one like it and searches bring up nothing. Its a 20" hard nose. Just wonder the manufacturer and he also want to sell it so if anyone is interested just message me. Thanks guys.

    Darn you guys! Another winch build thread.

    So the drum is turning and applying the brake engages the shaft. I think I understand the idea. I might make one just because it sounds interesting.

    Darn you guys! Another winch build thread.

    Really? Huh I'd love to see one. If I understand you correctly the winch would be 80 years old? That may be why I've never seen one. Regardless, my experience with the new winch is that if you're carful they are great machines.

    Darn you guys! Another winch build thread.

    Feel free to disagree, progress is never made by following the leader. I personally havent seen a winch that locked in, only the clutch driven models. When you pull the engage lever a pressure plate is pushed into a clutch and then into the winch drum. That design allows a degree of wiggle room

    Darn you guys! Another winch build thread.

    There isn't really any fear of the winch becoming to tight to unlock because you shouldn't be winching in the locked or engaged position. Locking is ONLY for when pulling with the cable, never for winching. Every factory built tractor winch that I have used has a big warning label saying this...

    Thanks. So thats what I was thinking, that they were similar. I also heard that a lot of parts are interchange between the 372 and 385. Kind of a ba$tard saw lol

    No confusion bud. I thought long and hard about trading it. The deciding factor was that I don't need 3 70cc class saws lol

    Oops sorry. P&C, while not as clean as the 372, is definetly in great shape. I wish I knew more about this saw though, I know about the 372 and the 394/395 but almost naught about the 385/390. I'm not even sure if the 385/390 are related

    this guy scares me

    I remember one of his video where he had a superduty and he had to chain it up but instead of chaining the back axle he chain the front. I commented that most of those trucks are open diff in the front not to mention that chains on front tires are kinda hard on u-joints. He told me that I was...

    Ok you win i admit defeat. I never did the research myself. :bowdown:

    The sales rep told me that the SLR design could not be patented exclusively to dolmar. He said it'd be like patenting a cat muffler. It doesn't work. I agree @MillerModSaws. Couldn't have said it any better.

    7900 and 7910

    Its all good! Im very happy I decided to do it and I would still recommend it. I was talking with a Dolmar sales rep about it a little while ago and at first he was a little pissed. Naturally, I told him to blow it out his a**. After a while though of explaining exactly my thought process and...

    Well I did it.

    We run vp in our saws at the fire department. Definetly noticed better rev speeds but didn't really notice much of a power difference. We run vp because its more stabil, doesn't seem to go stale, and because it burns very clean. Too expensive to run in my saws though.
