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.
