Efco 156-165-962-7200-181-8200 AV Mounts

Thanks to Chainsawr I knew the Husky 261-262 spring AV mt PN: 503-5148-01 would replace the rubber mts in a Efco 8200. I replaced all 6 on my 181. The diff is incredible well worth the trouble. Had my 156's out decided to check the PN on the AV mt. as it looked the same and it is. Efco used the same AV mts on 156-165-7200-8200. Had a bag of em so I changed em in my 156's (2) and my WP956. For any one wanting to do an upgrade on their Efco saws this is an incredible improvement. Highly recommend this change. The large Husky AV tool 502-5066-02 removes the rubber mt.

The front 2 are replaced on that 8200 stiffened it up nicely.

Sweet, that is one of the things I remember reading about the saw, in various reviews about it, as I was considering buying one when I had the temerity to think I would have any extra money, was that it was a bit 'soft' or 'floppy' feeling? Not that I yet have a benchmark to compare against, nothing yet in my bunch that are this big. Can't wait to start running it!
