Help please, Husky 350 Muffler Mount Problem

[mga]

for anyone interested, i just got an email back from husky on this problem:

Mr. X,

Very recently, we have come up with a new muffler mounting system that will address this problem. It is a new muffler with 3 mounting points instead of 2. The new muffler part number is 544 02 83-02 and the third mounting screw is 503 21 75-16. This will solve the problem you are having.

must be all new parts because i just did a search and could not find these parts on-line.

OK, so what happened? Are they going to send you the new parts? New saw with the new parts (I presume the cylinder is one of the parts)? Disappointing. Sorry to hear about your troubles. -WSJ

I bought a used 350 once with the same muffller problem. I just flipped it on ebay and let the next owner do what he pleases, parts or fix. I didn't want to have someone claiming that my fix was faulty. The guy that previous own this one ran it a long time before noticing....chainbrake mount was gone, and underneath the muffler was just horrible.
