Dexta Baling

Post by agroman »

Finally got around to posting a couple of vids of my newly rebuilt Dexta doing what she is built for!
Here are the Youtube links:

Looks to be working well, is the baler due for a makeover as well ?

Mind you, if you'd fitted an engine like this fella https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lmE17Dg23w it'd all be in the barn much sooner !

(begs the question what he has upgraded on the transmission, steering and brakes to do that on a public road !)

Steering and brakes would be my concern as the there wont be any extra torque (it only goes quicker as the engine will rev to 6K being what looks like an old Ford V6 petrol)
