Hi Frank
That is exactly what I was looking for.
I haven't been lucky enought to come across an E27 parts book for sale anywhere yet.

Thanks
Brad

Hi All, Wondering if somebody out there could post a in line of assembley or exploded view out of a parts book for the accessory Flat Belt Drive on E27 Have been given one in a bucket in bits and want to see what might be misssing and a few clues on how it all goes back together Thanks Bradson Austr...

I have seen a number of Dextas at various outings here in Australia with Red wheels and red grills.Was this an export colouring?
Here is one in original trim I saw last week.

Here is nicely done V8 Conversion

Unfortunately some farmer in their wisdom decided the best strategy to overcome a stiff steering box (caused by bent rotor shaft) would be to weld a truck steering wheel to the spokes of the existing dexta wheel spokes after hacking back so you can get more leverage on the diameter and it would turn...

Hello Ben I presume Looks like there has been somthing there at some stage as the holes are set distance on both sides of hood in alignment as if a badge was on each side. I have seen two 59 models here and they have a different badge all together with "diesel powered" embossed in chrome lettering d...

Hi There Being new to this I am struggling a bit trying to start attaching images to my posts.i reckon I am almost across the line but getting stuck last step. I read a previous post by bendexta and got onto the tractorsearch link. I then managed to find my jpg image as local off computer and size a...

Hi There fellow dexta addicts Could somebody tell me the correct hood badges that go each side for a 1958 model dexta.Is it the embossed metal FORDSON lettering or the FORDSON DEXTA all on the one badge? I want to order a couple out of UK probably from Agriline Another question why is there a differ...

Read the threads as advised by Bendexta The pictures all look familiar. This is no different to any others I have seen. Obviously this is why the later 1000's series all use a completely differnt box design. Question did the Sparex ,Bepco & Vapormatic options all turn out to be really crappy as well...

Thanks for getting back with some feedback. I am all poised here ready to go this morning and do a sizeable parts order. Probably not what I wanted to hear as I am flying blind on this one and its the first time I would be ordering online out of UK. Guess I am in the "Pot Luck" category as its a bit...

Hello Fellow Dexta People Could anybody give me some feedback as to the quality of the Steering Shaft Repair Kits that are advertised "on line" in Uk.(Agriline etc) I am thinking of ordering one with some other parts I need but I have had a couple of people in Aust tell me they were disappointed aft...

Another good idea The caps are a bit far gone. The initial damage was quite substantial! I tried first up repairing by building up and die grinding back out with burr and stone but it wasn't as successful as I had hoped and didn't look like how I do things . I wasn't satisfied with the result. I am ...

I thought about the Ball Bearing idea a while after I had written the last reply. That would certainly work! I will probably still persist in making up a weld insert like the original but should that get all too hard I can always go the ball option.

Hi There Dexta people, Hoping somebody out there might be able to help me out with a steering box rotor shaft to suit 58 model dexta. (one with the spline and nut that the drop arm fits to) or a complete steering box. When I stripped the box for rebuilding I found mine has one of the rotor shafts be...

Hi Guys Greetings back from Aust. This is first time using this forum. I am a member from Fordson Club of Aust Thanks for getting back with a few ideas. Somebody else mentioned that they used to squash up an old penny inside the socket cap to take up the slack. Not much different to the coke can ide...

Could anybody offer as to where to get replacement ball sockets to re weld back into the end of steering radius arms. I know Agriline have the footpegs with the female ball half and you can get the transmission side socket half but have not come across male ball replacement section. The ones I have ...
