This site will be dormant till April 2004.  Being active army, in the 82d Airborne, I finally move out to Iraq on the morning of the 10th of November.  My winter vacation.  Sunglasses, sand, warm sun, play with guns and big equipment....sounds like fun -- doesn't it. 

March 6th 2003, for GOOD BEHAVIOR - I'm BACK!  Vacation over.  Fired my ole Dexta up--with just a bump of the starter!  Used her to move about a dozen trees that the recent snow bent and broke up in the pasture.  Works superb!  More to follow.

11-2-2003 - Front Pivot Bushing PN: added Ford's PN 39-57.    Have about 100 hours on my engine rebuild.  Bump--she starts.  Sweet!

Latest pictures are Proofmeter installation. Jan 28 2003. See More Repair Photos.

The LOADER IS MOUNTED. 1 Feb 2003. It works.
I will take pictures of progress on the loader post them this week.

ALSO on EVEN MORE REPAIR PHOTOS, I have pictures of building up the DEXTA shifter fork and sizing it to prevent the tranny from "locking-in-gear."
