Dexta Pick Up Hitch

[ADFDexta]

I've owned a Dexta for over a year now and was wanting to buy a pick up hitch for it, but was unsure that with the tractor not having one on before buying a complete one would it fit?? Can anyone help please

there is one on ebay that's ending tonight, although it isn't complete

Yes it will fit but you will have to change the arms on the main hydraulic cross shaft; they can be beggers to get off the splines.

Why do you want a pick-up hitch - only useful if you're doing a lot of trailer work? For other implements a swinging draw bar is better.

One of mine has a PUH, hardly used as there are very few ring hitch trailers about for me, 50mm ball is more useful on a swinging drawbar.

Do you know where I could hold of a complete swinging drawbar???

[Jerry Coles]

Ebay has the fixed bits and I've seen the drawbar there often.
Ebay ref 181546692609
Otherwise try tractor auctions/autojumbles or tractor breakers like Ron Greet.

Swinging drawbars come up on ebay from time to time, but at ~£250 not cheap.
