    Non genuine chainsaw parts

    I've got a Husqvarna chainsaw in need of a bit of TLC, mainly a new bar and chain and an air filter. Does anyone know of a supplier of non genuine parts as Husqvarna are a bit hard on the pocket ?.
    Cheers,
    Anthony.

    I use Oregon chains, bars on mine. Should be available to fit from any chainsaw specialist.
    But I think for the aircleaner you are stuck with Husqvarna.

    Anthony ... I'm just up the road at Port Stephens. We are Jonsered (Husqvarna) dealers, and alot of Jonsered parts interchange with Husky ... and alot don't ... plus we do aftermarket bars, chains, etc.

    What model saw ??

    What length bar ??

    What pitch & guage chain ??

    I should be able to help you out. PM me if you like.

    Kev..

    If yours is an Echo, my dad's got one of those from Aldi and he loves it. There was a spare chain as part of the deal when I bought the saw. It came in an "Oregon" box and the links were marked Stihl. There's no doubting that Stihl / Oregon chains are good gear. An old bloke that I have a beer with now and then told me to store my chains in oil and it's surprising how much crud settles in the bottom of the oil tub.

    If it's what dad got it's an Echo saw with about a 14" bar. Only time will tell.
    Crisis averted too. I just fluked a bar and chain on Evilbay and the money saved will about cover the cost of a genuine air cleaner.

    I have a 24" and 30" bar on order, 25' of chain, couple of boxes of files and a few odds and sods and now I find out I could've bought two Aldi saws for all that
