After searching here and some PMs, I determined what I needed to 'upgrade' my 028 Super to the .325 floating Rim sprocket, instead of replacing the whole drum. I put my fairly new 18" .325 bar from my 361 and a new yellow (74) chain on the 028 a few weeks ago, after I upgraded my 361 to a 20" bar. I though before I use it I should put a new rim sprocket on it, to find out it was a whole drum everytime. A few of the guys, striperswaper & teacherman, here really helped by pointing me to the correct Baileys part numbers and explaining what was included in the Rim and Drum kit, so future rim sprocket replacements are just the floater rim like my 361 uses. The whole project took me less than an hour, including the cleaning time
I ordered from Baileys:
RD-29917 (.325-7) Rim & Drum (comes with washer, clips and gear)
DSB-37517 Drive Sprocket Bearing
The kit came with an extra cover insert, I guess Stihl might use two different sized ones, one fit, the other did not, spare part. Glad to see everything came in the kit, although it is not marked as a kit. The bearing was a seperate part number.
