All Things 288XP

[davidwyby]

Checked and the case is a 181 hodgepodge build

Looks to possibly be a complete clutch issue too. Different spider, counterweights, and springs between your two saw examples David. Just saying, LOL

I'd be interested to see the carb linkage set up. The 181 used a metal rod link connection to the carb. The 288 used a pad contact plastic lever to carb. Might give you some insight on what chassis you have for future parts.

I recently bought a new Brazil 288xp from Paveen and I am in search of a NOS high top cover for the 288xp along with a full wrap bar. I am too new to post in the for sale section but if anyone knows where I could find these items please let me know. Also I don't think pro safety has any in stock. It's just like one guy and he doesn't answer the phone and Baily's says they are backordered. Thanks

I just bought a blue one from him off eBay. Going to try and recreate an eliminator kit.

I just placed an order at Baily's for a prosafety. Called them and they said it wasn't backordered but special ordered. As in-made to order? IDK not feeling great about it. They took my money though so we will see. Would you be interested in selling your prosafety wrap handle?

 

[Smokealongthetracks]

So it didn't work just ordering directly off the pro safety website? That's what I've done in the past. I seem to recall seeing someone was making Eliminator decals a while back.

Sure, I don’t need it. I’ll get some pics tomorrow

I ordered a blue top off of Mattyo yesterday on ebay. He said it will be shipped out tomorrow or monday but didn't mention if he had decals. I sent him another message. Plan for this saw is full eliminator reporoduction build. All of my order from pro safety through baily's is "Pending"

 

[crockett]

A couple from my research, so they are out there, I just need to find them

Thank you! Got here yesterday.

The plastic is pretty rough but the rest is in great shape. It would look weird on your new saw, however
