WANTED Husqvarna 266 Top Cover

Looking for an OEM 266 top cover in nice condition. I know they're hard to find. Let me know what you have.

And, no, despite what the eBay adds say, the AM covers do not fit. They are for 268/272 only

There is an aftermarket 266 cover now available. @Czed

Link? It would have to be specific to the 61-266 saws and not for 268/272

Nothing on eBay. However, there are 2 good OE covers from the UK that aren’t ridiculously priced, even with freight.

I’m well versed on the 162/61/66/266 chassis, even several of those covers don’t fit all models. The 266 cover clears every chassis/cylinder config without trimming/cutting…

I purchased that exact aftermarket cover for two of my 266 builds. It fit well, but the plastic color and finish were kind of off. Here's how it looked on one of them. Took about 2 weeks to ship. Cost about 45 all said and done.

Here's the same saw with one of the aftermarket 272 covers. I had to drill and tap a couple of new holes. I ultimately didn't like it and used the previously mentioned aftermarket one.

It’s cheaper to purchase it from them through their online website.

Rit dye is what I would do, black.
