Must be nice having a dealer in the family lol, of course I'd be broke. Hey thanks again for the help, really appreciate it. 

[huskywilson]

no worries, hopefully its resolved soon by you

After measuring all my stihl bars that are stamped .050 with digital caliper they all measure .058 and higher, this shit is confusing me here, as far as the bar goes it's stamped vh2u-0j45 must of been a piece of dust making it look like a Y, only thing differnt is the markings after being D T 7J? Still gonna put a call in to supplier but shouldn't this shit all be cut and dry with these bars?

 might just be bar wear digital calipers are so random with the tips in a groove  as the tips have a taper towards the end so cant go in very far in the rail  so feeler gauges might be better as thay will go from 4 thou to 40  usually so put 2 in togethger say a 26 and 24 which are not floppy  so nice  ant tight , or whatever the gap is , not hard to figure out if you have feeler gauges .

, could not find that last code anywhere , even on google , maybe mail  sugihara  and post a photo of that bar  with the code and see if they reply

Talked to hl supply today and he assured me it is definately a .050/.325 bar. Gonna try and find a email for sugihara. 

[huskywilson]

if you try a unused 0.50 in another unused bar measure the rock side to side   from a cutter tip  it wont be much movement then  and put the chain in the sugi bar and measure  it , if  its rocking more it must be 0.58 them  as all sugi vh2u bars are shown as  0.58  on the site  so hes probably bluffing it on the phone , bring it up with him again and say to him ....right get a 058 chain and see if it fits in the 050 sugi bar listed , if he has to press it in with hand it wont be able to move in the bar  if it falls in and spins easily , its wrong somehow so will be 058
