  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Husqvarna
Pro Class
I was wrenching my 300 and the very back bolt on the subframe which holds the side plate on snapped off. Its like huh. I looked and now theres this 1/4 inch hole there in that subframe. There was apparently some housing there to screw the bolt in which isnt there now. I think it slid somewhere inside the subframe.

Without welding a chunk there and retapping. Is there some kind bolt/housing combo that I could buy at Ace or napa or something?
 
squirt a bunch of grease down in the hole before you put the new nutsert in. the grease will keep the old one from rattling. ;)
 
I bought the tool to expand the insert because from the factory they were not expanded enough and would spin making it difficult to remove the screw that holds the plastics in place.
