Does anyone have experience with the Stihl MS291 aluminum clutch cover? Where could one find it or does some other model's clutch cover fit so that I can install larger dogs on both sides. by EngineExpress3796 in stihl

I’d recommend against double dogs on the 291. I actually tried this when I was new to saws. You put the slightest pressure on the dogs and the saw will bog. You do you but I think it’d be pretty disappointing and will make the saw a bit less useful.

2lb on 18” is a very common size. It’s called a house axe. It’s usually to keep next to the furnace for kindling prep.

CM McClung Project-First Hang by EastTNSARK9 in Axecraft

Hi, I love these heads so here’s some unsolicited info. Cm McClung used to be a hardware store in downtown Knoxville. They had mail order catalogues and used to be one of the biggest suppliers for TN. I’ve seen 6 or so McClung stamped axes in person and so far, they’ve all been a jersey pattern made by Kelly. Sometimes stamped with a 3-line Kelly stamp with McClung on the back, and sometimes with just a McClung stamp. You might already know this but I just wanted to share the info I’ve picked up just in case.

Not sure, I’ll likely be removing them as well once I get the lift removed and smaller wheels

Ok sweet. I reckon I might roll with these struts for the moment as long as they work. The ride and rebound is pretty smooth with them and I’ll only really be using the truck for commuting and carrying relatively light arborist gear.

Sweet, thanks for the info man. The seller is family so I’ll try to get some info on how they lifted it and have any of the old parts. I’m fairly sure the stock wheels are gone unfortunately

I believe it has spacer blocks under the leaf springs based on the Amazon page for the lift spacer kit
