Thanks kiwiland dexta, I see the seal you got was 1/4" wide which is 6.35mm - My piston groove is 8mm (well 7.9mm) Can you remember if your seal filled the groove or was there a gap after you fitted the seal? I know that my old seal filled the groove as it was 8mm wide - Maybe your piston was differ...

The gland with the 'o' ring was definitely fitted by someone as its not original - I now have a new gland seal with the lip but its 7mm thick and doesn't fill the groove in the piston, the groove is 8mm wide and the old seal was a snug fit - Does it matter that the new seal i have is not as thick? A...

Agriline do the gasket @ £4.50 + vat https://www.agrilineproducts.com/parts/hydraulic.html?_=Ford_and_Fordson__Fordson__Dexta You may find it quite tight to get it pulled of the two dowels, I'd spray the dowels with penetrating oil a day or two before starting (especially if its not been removed in ...

Thanks mathias1,
I've already ordered this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAE-20W-Stra ... SwgY9Xdj6H
I hope its ok?

Forgot to mention: The gland is marked RSD 65 73 8 - I'm assuming its 65 ID X 73 OD X 8mm Thick

I am working on my Dexta Lift Cover Decided to change the seal on the piston (gland type seal) and was surprised to find a 'O' ring under the gland type seal, I seem to have the very first type piston (part number 957E 530) Is it still possible to get the seal kit for this piston? OR do i need to bu...

Which of these 2 oils would you guys recommend for Dexta Hydraulics/Rear axle? I'll go with your preference! Thanks. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAE-30-Straight-Monograde-Engine-Oil-20-Litre-20L/302002032577?hash=item4650b94fc1:g:E3kAAOSwRQlXdj65 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAE-20W-Straight-Monograde-...

I have a new draft control spring,bush and swivel for my dexta but i have a couple of questions - The reason being, all of the draft control fittings were not present when i removed my lift cover (i can only assume these were removed by a previous owner/cowboy) 1. Should the bush be a loose fit to s...

Thanks Mervyn, No joy for that part with Sparex or Agriline - Found a guy in USA who has 3 of them, brand new genuine fordson, Probably the only 3 in the world! Bought one from him and if anyone needs one, well now's the time to get the wallet out - Seriously, these cannot be got anywhere on the int...

I've just located very rare Dexta part - DRAFT CONTROL LINK part no. 957E540, This is the link that connects onto the rod at the main draft control spring - Found it in USA and the guy has only 2 remaining if anyone wants one It's a genuine part and is brand new, no others available on the internet ...

Would any of you good people have a Dexta Draft control link or link assembly going spare that i could purchase? Part no. 957E540

Thanks.

Guys, Do you know if this fits the Fordson Dexta?

Working on my lift, Fitted that pin that always seems to cause problems (was totally sheared off) - My question is: There is no Qualitrol fittings at all present in my lift, I think they should be there and must have been taken out by a previous owner? Can i do the lift adjustments without them bein...
