Mate just recently I got my set of dogs from you guys and that little bushing definitely fit inside the hole and took up most (not all) of the slop so I used it. There is a whole lot more gap on the opposite side. My friend had some chain catchers (the round plastic part) machined up in brass and nickel coated, because we all know the 3 rules of the modern lumberjack: 1) Look good 2) Have fun 3) Safety third I'm in your video feed just double checking the install procedure for the suspension kit. Thanks. My 500i is now sexy AND functional.

Need a shop and truck tour! Shop and trucks look awesome 😎

I’m setting up your dogs on your clutch cover on my saw and was struggling with the little c clip and decided to try KZfaq for tips not expecting to find anything and found this! You are awesome thank you so much

I wish I had seen this yesterday!... I installed the Stihl kit yesterday.... had a terrible time getting that little bushing in. I did get it, but it was a bit of a chore. Love the Dogs! Thanks.

Thanks Gordy. I was looking for a how to video a year ago on this and found nothing. I’ve lost so many c clips doing it dumb ways. Thanks for showing us the easy way

Bought a 462c from Horners, they installed your dogs on it for me. Them dogs are aggressive! A light touch on the saw is all that is needed when doged in.

I put the small spacer on the inside side of the chain catcher post and when you tighten the nut it crushes into the dog hole and prevents the post from spinning so you can tighten that nut. The spacer is machined to a tight tolerance and will press into the dog hole as you tighten the nut.

I have this set up on my 500i and love it! Hope to see you come out with one for the 362👍🏻 Awesome products! Thanks Gordy!

Great video!! Keep them coming.

A good product. Works! Thanks for the video.

When I added the 3 point dogs to my 572 I went ahead and mounted the chain catcher post to the inside dog, that way the outside could mate with the inside easier since only my bar nuts keep the dog on because the crappy coarse threaded tiny middle screw stripped so I just leave that out. Plus once the cover is installed you don't have access to the inner dog mounting screws. In case anyone is wondering the West Coast 3 point dogs are freakin awesome! I plan on adding them to my 550xp mk 2 also. Well done Gordie! Another well made product! The raker guages are great too!

Installed WCS dogs on my MS362 last week and i just took a needle nose locking pliers clamped it on the end of the Stihl catch rod and unscrewed it. No disassembly required. Then reinstalled on the new dog, outside first too.

Hey!! comment section open boys!! Thanks for the video Gordy. Good stuff

Video helped me out. Just put my west coast dogs on

Thanks for the tips Gordy.

And what you said about the chain roller given support that's 100% true because I ordered the three-point dogs from you and I was dumb and I did not put the chain catcher on and within 2 months my dogs broke in half and it was my fault I did order a new set cuz I love them from you but yeah I learned to use chain catchers definitely and you would think after 20 years of cutting I would know that LOL

Thank you Gordy!!! Very helpful.

Thanks . The socket trick worked wonders

thanks Gordy i really needed this video

I was just wondering what is the purpose of the chain catcher/roller cause I never used them am thinking about buying the dogs for mine stihl ms271

Good video sir thank u.

I did find that I had to shave down the roller for my 261 when I put your guys dogs on it. Unless I had the wrong roller for the saw but it was my assumption that Stihl doesn’t make a roller type chain catch for the 261.

I blew out the dog holes on the STIHL stock clutch cover and I thought it was because of the WCS dogs putting too much leverage. Now I realize it was cuz I didn’t put them on how you showed, I remember having to bend the chain catcher to get it all to sit into place.

Thank you, Gordy!! Ive got mine on but doesn't roll,had trouble with that tiny clip!!😂

You should put the link to the Westcoast saw website on every video. It will bring you more customers.

When are you going to start building saws again? I want a 661 or 500

I got the 3 point dogs for the echo 7310 and the roller got lost and so did the bar. Or maybe I took the bar off after the roller fell out. Well it looks like my issue was that I didn’t use the lock ring cause I had no idea what it was

yeah, I was looking at the chain catcher. My Stihl 261C only came with the inside dog. It doesn't have the outside dog. I definitely plan to upgrade all that along with the steel clutch cover, and the chip deflector. Too bad you don't carry bar and chains.

I someday hope I’m as cool as this guy

Do you also use this chain catcher on echo 620?

Dumb question, does the factory chain catch on the 362 get tossed if you put this roller on?

Does anyone know what size that little c clip that fits onto the shaft of the chain catch roller is?

Nice shirt!!! 😃

Thank s👍👍🤣

I like to mount it on the power head side and then put a piece of garden hose on it and it then last way longer

👍👍 bagus 👍👍

Hey Gordy how are you I love your products I have many of them God bless would you be interested in building me a saw by any chance

What is the advantage to not having the dogs fully tight on your cover plate?

Why can't you drill out the bottom of that and put that bushing in there with a little bit bigger drill bit can you😊
