Question:
I have a 455 Rancher and the crankcase cracked. I am trying to replace the crankcase with a used one off of Ebay. I wanted to know how precise I need to be in replacing the crankcase in terms of matching it with the exact serial number. Will something close in terms of year and serial number match? Is there overlap in interchangeability of model parts? Also, I've posted the Serial Number tag. I wondered how to read the rest of the numbers below the serial number. I can't find information on what it means.
Answer
The 510065902 crankcase was used on the following saws.
455 (2005-01) Chainsaw
455 (2005-03) Chainsaw
455 Rancher (2006-02) Chainsaw
455 (2006-06) Chainsaw
455 (2007-01) Chainsaw
460 (2006-02) Chainsaw
460 (2006-06) Chainsaw
460 (2007-01) Chainsaw
460 (2011-01) Rancher Chainsaw
455 E (2006-06) Chainsaw

Personally I would rebuild but would be helpful if you have a copy of the 455/460 workshop manual.
As to if I am right about the models just click on the model ipl (illustrated parts list) links that I provided and compare all the part numbers.
I think for someone that has never done it is a major, major undertaking. I repair these saws for a living and it still takes nearly an hour to remove, R&R the carburetor, and reinstall it alone. To replace the crankcase would require a complete tear down and re-assembly. For someone that knows what they are doing it will still take nearly 4 hours do the complete breakdown, inspection, and re-assembly.
