Husky sprockets!

[div_h]

Was having a look at my 346 today and it's got a rim sprocket on it, can I change this for a 8t spur type?

 

Thanks

Think so.

 

Someone will be along shortly who knows for sure.

Yes, if it fits that saw! But why not get an 8t rim?

Do spur not last longer?

Nope . If you get a spur you get a clutch drum too . Just put an 8 tooth rim on . Wont be as good though unless your saw is ported or you are using a 13" bar max .

Same opinion as stubby. Spud ported my 346xp in December and put it on an 8 rim on it with 13 inch bar. It is fantastic in cutting speed and power. However even with it ported you need to be revving fully to keep it going. I use my other 346xpg(unported) with a 7 tooth rim and unless Im going through twigs soon pick up the ported one again. Unless you are going through very soft timber such as spruce your saw will bog down alot with a 13 inch bar on 8 tooth rim, unless you get it ported and keep the chain sharp.

I sowed the seed and the porting radar came on !

Mmmm porting! I want to send it to spud to get it checked over anyway to see why it seized, but not sure about porting it.

 

I think al stick with the 7 rim on it, want to keep a 15 bar on it.

 

I sold my stihl to get a husky to port now I'm thinking....no:confused1:
