New member, learning about dexta.

Post by Marco »

Hello everyone.
I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Marco, i am brazilian , and recently bought a fordson dexta . The engine was rebuild two years ago , and it works very well. The only mechanical problem is in the steering, i need to turn the steering wheel ¼ a turn before the wheels move.
And it need some paint.
I’d like to put some pictures of my dexta.

Marco,
Welcome to the board.
What a lovely original Dexta you have, in great condition.
We don't find many so straight and rust-free in UK - well found! :wink:

'Play' in the steering is a well known problem. First thing to check is the 'nut' at the top of the steering column - actually a sort of ball-race.
Have you a copy of the workshop manual? If not I'll email you a copy.
