Hey guys, i want some input on this saw. I make some money flipping saws, i get alot from my stihl dealer, ive wanted a husqy for a while and he had this. Its a 575xp, it is complete minus a bar and chain. Its in pieces. it needs a piston, and from what he says it needs crank bearings. Which means it needs crank bearing seal combo. Do i mess with this thing? i really want to, ive never ran much less owned a husqvarna, and i want to give them a try. I know there is problems with the bearings, any help would be greatly appreciated, as of right now the saw sits in a cardboard box in the machine shed, its not allowed near the wall of stihls in the shop, but i want to hear it run do i cut my loss of 50 bucks for it or should i spend some money and fix it?
