Will the handle bar for a 359 fit on a 2159, any clearance issues with the chain brake?
Thanks, Roy

Can be made to fit- kind of ugly- but big enough hammer and you can achieve most things.
The true Jonsered half wrap is much squarer and yes the brake flags differ at the knee joint.
Off the top of my head- for this model- I cannot remember if the side tank mount holes are similar- or if the Jonsered bar is longer and the two holes much further down the line (as is the case with most Jonsered versus Husqvarna wrap bars).
Bare minimum- you are looking at rebending a Husqvarna half wrap to follow the more square approach of the Jonsered saw and at least drilling a new mount hole for the side mount.

Ok thanks, I’ll probably just leave it alone.
Last winter I dropped a tree on my 359 and broke the case, some plastic, bent the handle.
I was looking for another 359 but ran into a pretty good deal on a 2159.
I prefer the angled handle on the 359, if it was an easy swap I would buy a 359 handle and install on the 2159, not that big of a deal I’ll probably get used to it

Look for parts for a 357xp as well.
