Has any one ever tried the heavy duty chains???? At Farm & Fleet I can get a 10 foot #50 chain for around 12$ They also have a #50D chain for around 25$!! I compaired the two, D being a much beefier chain. Would I have enough clearance???? Is it worth the extra mony????
i bought a couple of the 10ft sections of the #50 chains from lowes and replaced all mine, they work fine for nowOriginally Posted by Russh
I just pulled all 6 chains off of my Hustler and they have 530 stamped on them. How does this compare to a 50 or 50D?
What year??? What motor??? What spring??? I am NO expert, and I don't know what 530 meens. Still learning like you!!! I am just curious what setup you have. I went to a "red" spring and could snap the old chains with little effert!!
Year unknown, engine Chaparral size unknown, still trying to find out what I have. Looks like the 980 Bigfoot on the other site. (Route 6x6) Pics on the thread "I just got a Hustler and I have questions"
a 530 and a #50 roller chain both fit the same spocket. All the measurements where the chains meet the spocket are the same. The difference is a 530 is a beefier heavier chain. A 530 O ring chain is even heavier with O ring seals on every link. #50 chains are normaly used in industrial applications.
at a glance I would say it is a standerd husler. in very good shape!!! But a 2-stroke---2-cylinder----liquid cooled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!COOL Once you get the bugs worked out, it should fly!!!!
Yeah, that looks like a 950 and someone put a Xenoah LC in it. The 340 and 440 were both popular engines and still fairly easy to get parts for. Either one should push the machine right along!
Stuck in the seventies- not in the swamp.
(6) Attex, a Hustler, a Super Swamp Fox, (2) Tricarts, (3) Tri-sports, a Sno-co trike, 3 Dunecycles, and a Starcraft! ...so far
A 950? ok cool. Any ideas on how to tell what year it is? I still need pics of the latterals. I need to fab or buy some.
