This was the easiest video to follow. Got it all replaced in the time it took to play the video and pause in between steps. Super easy. Thanks!
Good morning everyone
Nice work Scheib! We just got a 500i in our local stihl dealer. 1st one since they came out! Your next business will be Scheib's Custom Chainsaw Repair Shop.
Okay now I pay too much attention to firewood lol. Never knew you could change suspension on a saw for a smoother ride lol. Good work.
Thanks 👍
Hey Scheib. Didn’t even know that could be done.
I just got done with a class at a career center for small engine repair. Always like watching stuff like this. Got another class coming up next month and I'll be tearing down a riding mower engine and rebuilding that. Good video as always Scheib
Good info buddy! You left openings for more- that’s what she said -than I can count on one hand! Maybe my minds just in the gutter this morning!😂
Good job, I hope it works out. Terry
Nice job of the new fix
Now we want to see that thing eat!
Time for more roadside logging
I dont know if those were the original log spikes but i got a pair that were about 4 times that big , works great on heavy bark wood, just a little info
They are the OEM spikes
Nice how to video Scheib. I would have never thought about changing the suspension on a saw. Take care buddy.
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
Scheib, I'm impressed with your knowledge of chain saws and your ability to make changes that you need to take care of! Enjoying all of your content and keep them coming! obie
Yay! You got the stiffer suspension! It makes a big difference. I like it!
Mine is fine. Nothing needs beefing up. $50 seems pricey also.
Nice work Scheib. 💪🏻👊🏻🍻🇺🇸
This was really cool video good jpp today love your video buddy 🍺🍺
This is the best video I have seen you post. Good watch. Would like to see you learn how to use wire rope chokers w/snatch block for your woodstering, me being in oregon its a west coast thing, I have seen Back 40 firewood use wire, a little bit, it will open a whole new world to you. Nuts 319 plays the wire rope game . Anyway thanks for the vid.
Something wrong with a chain?
I'm getting my Ms 500i soon !
Nice job !!
Don always assume hearing that whoo it’s a eye opener 👀
No worries I don’t
Cool video. I just picked up an older stihl 046 this week so I may do this if I find it vibrates my hands too much. West coast saws has some quality parts. Thanks!!
Sir, you are a saint and thank you for doing this!
My pleasure!
Super like
Thanks for the visit
👍👍
Looks to me like the Gen Z engineers at Stihl designed her with the Lumbersexual in mind.
A softer, more subtle Cadillac ride for those with more of a limp-wristed cutting style.😬
A chainsaw isn’t intended to be an accessory to the modern male wardrobe...
It’s a Tool, not a Toy!
Now she should be able to work like a truck with overload springs!💪🏼
Nice tutorial brother.😎
Bless’ns on ya, Tedd
thanks buddy have a Merry Christmas brother
What was wrong with the original ones??
One of the complaints about the 500i is its soft (weak) Suspension. figured i would see the difference and if it is beneficial in anyway.
@Outside with Scheib I haven't noticed it too much in my own one , I guess you will feel more vibrations now though?
@@6900pilot I have run it since definitely stiffer but as far as vibrations I don’t feel any more vibrations then I did before.
@Outside with Scheib that's great dude. Happy days!.
@@6900pilot The sloppiness is only from 25-28" bars and up. With shorter bars its fine stock. Run a 36" on yours and you'll understand where the issue comes from. The vibration in the handles will be stronger with this stiffening upgrade, so goodbye running it without gloves.
Do you notice a big difference with this upgrade?
Definitely stiffens the saw up.
See this is something you shouldn’t have to do. Especially on a 1400$
I’m sorry but stihl products suck. Just saying a husky 372 can easily support a 36” bar with ZERO antivibe modifications
Sorry you feel that way
The $ goes before the number. Do they not teach that in school anymore?
A husky 372 isn't as low vibration and smooth as this is stock. Pluses and minuses, as with everything. The upgrade with the 661 front spring and glueing some 1/10th inch rubber rings over the existing bushings costs you under 10 bucks and you can do it in like 10 minutes if you really wanna run 28+" bars. For people that run 20-25", the stock setup is great.
