FOUND IT 272XP Crankshaft

[CJ Brown]

Anyone have a good crankshaft for a 272xp? The throw bearing let go in mine, so I got a used one and installed it, and discovered it's bent ugh.

I'll have one for sure and I'm in Canada as well.....Just need to know if you have the early crank with the woodruff key or the cast in key in the flywheel.

Key in the flywheel

Edit: I mean cast in key in the flywheel - thanks.

I'll dig one up and PM you with pics

Score!!!

Looks like maybe this will work out CFB! If I can get the crank next week I should be able to get the saw back together before the 3rd, barring any other surprises.

A couple days were looking sketchy, but we're fine. Better off than so many others and we are housing evacuees at our house.

Only drove through B.C. once. I bought a truck in Nanaimo and drove it back to Ontario a few years ago. I could not believe how beautiful it is out there! I will be making that trip again solely for pleasure in a few years so I can show my son what he is missing living here - maybe he will want to find work in the West once he sees what he sees the other side of the country.

I hope the fires will soon be brought under control so you and all those affected can get your lives back to normal, or at least start re-building for those directly affected.

Got the crank today. This time I checked it for straightness It's perfect

Thank you Rob!
