Fordson Dexta or Ford Dexta PUH Query

Post by Ambidextarous »

Can anyone tell me how to tell the difference between a pick up hitch for a Fordson Dexta or Super Dexta and one that fits a Ford Dexta/2/3000?

Good day Ambidextarous,

I do believe it will fit the Ford Dexta 2000 as I believe the backends of the Fordson Dexta and Ford 2000/3000 are the same. I am open to correction.

This image of the auto hitch is taken from the Ford 2000-5000 series operators manual. The equipment is exactly the same as mine on the Super Dexta.

I believe that the release handle was lengthened for use with Q cabs.

Thanks for the help chaps. I'm just wondering why people point out that a hitch advertised for a Fordson Dexta is for a Ford 2/3000 if there's no difference :scratchhead:
