Want to Buy Husqvarna 288 anti vibes

[Trent Curtis]

Looking for the spring anti vibes (front) for a husqvarna 288.

I could use (4) of them as I have 2 saws in need.

I would buy a whole set as well, if somebody is looking to sell.

Thank you!

HL supply has them for a gd price 4.00 each I think

Those are the rubber AV's..... are they interchangeable?

Yes they are, they take a special husqvarna tool to put them on and take them off

Or a good pair of needle nose-

They would probably do the job, I got my tools local $1 each for the 3 different sizes. I like working on the 2 series saws, and the 288 is my favorite. I try to keep aa many spare parts on hand as I can.

Your should swap them out for the spring style

I prefer the rubber, when i got my 288 lite it was all springs and 4 of 6 were broken. The same springs were used on the 262's in the rear. I scored some cheap a/m hard rubbers and have been very happy with them. I just used a little loctite on the threads that go into the tank and as said above used a good pair of needle nose pliers to put em in

Well I ordered the AM rubbers from HL supply, thank you Dustin.

I would rather run springs just to keep the saw(s) the same all the way around.

I'll keep this thread open for a wee bit and see if anybody comes along with some springs to sell
