I don't know what the difference in the tachos is. Maybe the gear ratios changed in 1960
According to my rather inaccurate Dexta book, the proofmeter did indeed change in 1960. See:
http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/ubb/F ... 00103.html and
http://dexta.20m.com/photo4.html
And maybe the cables changed when the mechanical fuel pump arrived in 1962. Since you have a '63, I'm guessing you need the 'D' versions?? I believe the later cable is longer, so suggest you check the length.
I should put the problem to your supplier - he should know what he's selling for what!
Perhaps one of the gurus can enlighted us further?
Post Script:
I just serched the old site, see sticky top of here, and some folk say an MF 35/135 tacho may work (Bare-Co, calif)
Also try to fix your old tacho, nothing to loose
(parts missing can't repair) the cable is also missing anybody know how long the cable is for the super dexta
