Jonsered 2171 2165 2071 questions
« on: October 03, 2011, 05:10:15 pm »
I am slowly converting a 372 with jonsered 2171 crankcase back to a jred.

 Looking at the 2171 top cover it uses clips and a separate carb cover from pics I have looked at on the net and the 2165 uses a one piece top and screws down?

Can someone help me out with good top cover pics please.

 So far I have a 2171 crankcase and 2071 tank. Now I need a handle, top cover, clutch cover, recoil.

I dont think so. I'm reading it's a 2063 2163 2165 2065 2071 2171 thing.  Some are 2 piece and some are 1 piece covers.

Well I got all the parts and the 2171 is done. Went with the 2 piece top cover.

I tell you one thing I learned, unless you have a dealer local or someone that runs jred's. Parts are a lot harder to come by and people in the used parts and rebuilding saws business  dont like to part with jonsered parts.  Lesson learned  and probably be the last time I part one together.  Used parts are :o :o

A little harder to find in most areas I agree, but they shouldn't cost more than their Husky counterparts.

As far as letting them go, I'm pretty cautious with the older stuff myself because so much of it is NLA. If I come across some extras, I'll share them, but certain things I hold on to.  ;)

I agree with the price and availability. I converted a 2071 to a 2171 and trying to find pieces was difficult to say the least

I decided to keep the 2171 instead of trading it for the unknown 371 that is said to be good to go too.

I know this one isnt a pretty looker after the parts searching, but she does run and cut  sweet. I dont give a rip about looks of a saw, how it runs is much more important to me.  ;D

Couple decals and repainting the top handle black, and she'll look great.  8)

That's about the way a saw should look anyway. It's got some time on it, and you can just grab it and go to work. If they look too good, you want to keep them that way.  ;)
