Husqvarna 272xp bottom end build.

Replacing worn out crank bearings on a 272xp. This bottom end was a bit stubborn but it turn out nice.
Thanks for watching.

I love the 200 series. Just scored an all original 1994 272 in good running condition for cheap with clean cylinder and it’ll hang all day by the pull cord. LOVE 272’s.

[@tinmanssaws]

Oh yeah buddy I'm porting this for sure. I'd like it to be more stout then my 266 when done.

[@chrisoxley7148]

Thanks bud . . . really appreciate learnin' from ya .

Yes, I've noticed that the 'Crank' is a bit stiff in the morning when she wakes up, and fortunately my crank knocker still works

[@toddyuill3924]

Haha using a copper sock from marks for a glove nice ordered some parts from wolf creek last week you were right great to deal with thanks

[@williamlalo3759]

Another good video.

[@tinmanssaws]

Thank you!!

[@Tj-zz6gh]

Do you ever run into situations where you'd use bearing retaining compound? Or would you consider the case halves scrap in that scenario? The wealth of knowledge here in all these videos is great man! 👍

[@tinmanssaws]

If there's any movement in the bearing pocket I consider the cases scrap.

[@307j.o.a.t9]

@@tinmanssaws im sure it could. Just would have to get tools and time. I got so much goin i would be hard pressed to find time.

Sometimes it's your day sometimes well it just isn't. 👍👍

[@tinmanssaws]

Yeah for sure. I dont work as quick on camera, I'm still the hang of this whole youtube thing!!

[@seanlittlefair105]

Very informative. Thanks. Do you use a long tube socket to install the crank seals or the husky tool... I’m new to rebuilding saws

[@tinmanssaws]

I use a socket usually. I plan on building seal drivers but haven't gotten around to it.. The key is to make sure the seal is straight and that you dont role it over when you install it.

[@jjock3239]

Learned something new regarding adjusting the endplay. I like your idea of using the heat gun to warm the case halves for assembly. Do you ever find it worthwhile to heat the case when splitting the bottom end?.

[@tinmanssaws]

Sometimes if the cases don't want to come apart I'll apply some heat. More often then not they come apart easy.

[@jjock3239]

@@tinmanssaws Thanks.

[@chrisyerp174]

Thes vids are great thank iv watch about 20 of your vids , What tool did you use to release them old bearing from the case

[@tinmanssaws]

I use a case splitting tool.

[@jackfrosty79ify]

If bottom end is not all way gone can you still build it

[@jordanhenson626]

Is there any way you could pictures if what you're portwork looks like in one of these, i can never really find any clear pictures, i don't have a wheel but i do have a digital angle and i feel like i could use that.

[@tinmanssaws]

I've done many of these on video, check out my 200 series playlist which shows portwork in many videos.

[@Tj-zz6gh]

Also curious if you use oem husky bearings and seals or which?

[@tinmanssaws]

I rarely use oem bearings unless they are proprietary like 5 series huskys and stihl pto side beafings

[@Tj-zz6gh]

@@tinmanssaws cool, good to know! What happens to be your choice of aftermarket bearing??

[@tinmanssaws]

Anything C3 grade, FAG, SKF are usually what I use

[@Tj-zz6gh]

@@tinmanssaws great, thanks man!
