I can't help on getting it apart (other than to say that most disassembles require you to remove the axles first), but once you get that gear out, take it on a tour of local machine shops as far as building up the teeth with weld then shaping them.
I loaned my haying outfit to my elderly neighbor one time, to bale up little pieces for friends around the neighborhood. He asked me how much I wanted for the use of the equipment, and I just told him "make whatever deal you want, and give me whatever you think is fair." It was kind of fun- I'd come home from work, and find some more hay in the barn, or a $20 bill under a rock on the porch.
Came home one evening and my baler looked like a yard sale (in his yard). Turns out a tooth had broken on the big gear (bull gear?) that runs the plunger. He had sought the advice of a retired machinist friend of his, and they had removed the gear and built up a new tooth, then shaped it. Honestly, if it hadn't been for the blue color from the heat, I would not have been able to tell which tooth it was. They also cut a new keyway in the shaft so it would be a different tooth on the gear being subjected to the stress when the plunger hit the bale. The two guys were as happy as could be- a chance for a couple of codgers to use their skills and do something productive for a change.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
