Oregon 73 LP tie presets

[NWWrench]

Hi guys,
I am looking for some Oregon 73LP presets. I Called Oregon and this chain was discontinued along time ago. I did order a preset kit for 77 chain but the rivets are to big. I am hoping someone has new old stock laying around. If some one comes through with some presets that fit and work I would love to buy some and I would also throw in a new chain up to 105 dl for free out of my roll.
Thanks Ryan.

Isn't 73LP just 3/8 x 0.058 chain?

It is .058" 3/8, the presets are different than anything I could find.

Huh, interesting. Could you post up a pic of the presets/chain?

My bad Woodslasher, it is 77 lp. I suppose I could make the hole bigger to allow for the preset.

What’s the thickness of the dl links.. ? Or the bar groove ..

of better still what is the 77 type chain

I believe it is .058", I will check tonight when I get home.
Thanks

Wouldn’t the presets for LPX or LGX maybe possibly work? LPX and LGX is just a revised version of the LP and LG chains. I think the raker design is what one of the changes was.

that was my thinking or even a stihl preset&tiestrap as long as the shoulder is the right height….that’s why I asked
Anyhow stihl don’t do a 0.58
