I have a question from a friend of mine. What is the thread on the Dexta series?
The Major is UNC / UNF, so I suspect with the Dexta as well, but the engine is made in England. Is it then equipped with Whitworth?

Re: Thread on the Dexta
All Major and Dexta parts that could be common are, and all were made in England. The Dexta engine is a Perkins design with Ford modifications and castings.
As for threads I think both are a mix of UNC/UNF and BSW/BSF. Hydraulic threads are BSP. If your friend needs new bolts you could try measuring the pitch, as it's different (1/2 bolts can have 12 and 13 threads per inch).

Henk,
the dexta's parts list will help you with the correct sizes.
I guess most are unc/unf. Withworth are older type of fastners.
