Would anyone know offhand what the threads are on the Dexta/Super Dexta test port that comes out of the pump housing by the brake pedals?
Thanks,
Les
Hydraulic pump test port threads?
Thanks Brian,
That's really good to know and much handier just to adapt a guage to what I think are pipe threads?
But.. I'm curious as to what the actual threads are on the service plug as well as the threads on the oil filler plugs on the transmission and differential?
They all have a copper ring to seal.
On one of our Super Dextas a return line has been teed in to the filler on the differential using pipe threads but I'm sure that is not really the correct thread.
Thanks again,
Les

The thread on the auxiliary valve is 1/2" BSP parallel.
The test point plug thread on the pump housing measures 0.555" x 18 tpi and is probably 9/16" UNF.
The filler plugs for the rear axle and gearbox I am almost certain are 1.9/16" UNF! They are definitely not a pipe thread.
As all the above threads are parallel, Dowty seals or copper washers should be used.
