Anyone have an extra 2100 clutch they would be willing to part with?

We can't stop here, this is bat country.
181, 281/8 or 394/5 clutches will work too.

No. They are a newer design and have three small springs instead of the one large spring that goes all the way around.

Yes, direct bolt on. All of those saws even use the same clutch drum. The design changed somewhere in the 281 days.

Thanks, for the heads up.

I just went with a 288 clutch on my 2100, works great. I couldn't find a new spring for my original style clutch.

got a freebee delivered 2100 the other day , runs , has a herd of comp. should clean up ok. have not pulled it down to really look at it internally . a couple thins monkeyed on to it. like the steel home made wrap and the front spring av. the guy said that it was hopped up , what ever that all entails. i'll pull ill down in a day or so and take a peak inside.

The later 2101XP's had a spring up front (like a 288) rather than the rubber isolator used on the earlier saws in the series. Looks like somebody put some work into making a full-wrap. The early 1100 and 2100 full wraps looked somewhat like that...............but better finished.

I am a stihl guy when it comes to modern saws but have a week spot for the 2100-2101 and the 288. The other day in a rare trading mood I traded off my 2100 for a strong 288 and picked up another 288 parts saw for cheap. In a few months I should have 2 complete 288's.

Yeah Bubba!
Don't matter what saws you are inclined to love, a true saw freak knows a good one when they feel it.
Dyed in the wool Sachs Dolmar fan, but no denying them dudes are strong and stout!
Read somewhere when the 1100/2100 hit the scene it put alot of 090s and 125 macs out O' work.
Definitely THE quintessential 6 cube saw.

My ported 288 has become my goto large bar saw. That and a ported 359 are about all I use anymore. The 395 only comes out for 42" bar work.

prob should look at the tag and see if it is a 2100 or 2101. still dirty and sitting on the bench. i do have another full wrap to put on it. and it's missing the presence and fast idle levers.
Here's my newly ported 2100. Sports a WJ39 carb with V-Stack. Cylinder was ported and then sent to US Chrome for re-plating and piston coating. Let me say, you better be sure of your pull!!
This is my latest crew: 2100CD, 395XP, 394XPW and 372 XPW. All highly modified I might add.
394 and 2100 all built by SRCARR.

Beautiful saw I say. And I don't want to sound like a broken record, well maybe I never really mentioned it. My love for them big huskies!
