[J D]

He’s still trying to figure out the right bar and chain.

When I posted that I was sure the OP said something about other recommendations or things to be aware of... wouldn't have added it otherwise. I think I might have got my threads crossed LoL.
Fortunately it seems to have been well received

Welcome to A.S.!

The Husqvara 359 is a good saw, and could be a good deal, if it is in good condition. It is a bit larger, more powerful, and heavier than the 455 Rancher:

359

Weight	5.50 kg.
Engine power	3.90 HP
Engine power	2.90 kW
Cylinder displacement	59.00 cc.

455

Engine Specification
Displacement(cc)	55.5cc
Power	3.5 hp
Maximum Power Speed	9000 rpm

Dimensions
Weight (lbs.)	12.8 pounds

A lot of Husqvara saws come with .058 gauge chains, but it is up to you, and what is available in your area. If you buy online, you can pretty much get whatever you want.

Show us a photo of your drive sprocket? That might need replacing too, in which case, you can change the pitch of your chain too, at no additional cost.

Just google K095 24 inch bar and you will find options from Forrester, Oregon and Sugi Hara at least.

Or a servicing Husqvarna dealer.

I think I'll stick with a 20" on my 359. Don't want to overtax it (or me).

Cat 525 has them used is good condition. Fair prices, ships fast.
I’ve bought several husky bars from Tim…including a 24 for my 359.
