Q: I’d like to buy a 555 with a 16” bar and a 20” bar both. Is this an option? I only see a 18” option to add to the cart. Asked on July 23, 2025 11:11 PM A: Good morning, you would need to order this item: Husqvarna 970501406 555 59.8cc Gas Engine Chainsaw w/ 20" Bar and then purchase a separate 16" bar as the 555 only is sold as a kit with an 18", 20", or 24" bar.
