Ah, no worries. Just thought it would be a useful piece of info to add to the repository here.

Slides on super easy
Shrinks tight & smoothe

Tried to find a link to what I used. Kev posted it but I think mine was 1.25" and that's why I struggled getting it on. Just got the saw back together and couldn't be happier!

Looks very good ,Dan. I have used it on several saws since trying to install the OEM Stihl ribbed hose on a few of my 044`s, that stuff is an absolute bear to wrestle on even using the compressed air and valving Andy,( Lakeside) showed us.

Sharp looking saw! The heated grips really could spoil a guy. I got em on my 5105 and they are nice cutting in the cold.

Thanks! I wish they were on my ported 5100! Might have to swap jugs!
