How big of a job is it to replace a ring gear on the flywheel and where can you find new ones? Thanks

Bill, it's real easy. Split the tractor and remove the flywheel. Knock the ring gear off the flywheel with a chisel. Heat the new ring gear up to 400 degrees or so with your oven or a torch and lay it in place. I have a new ring gear for $59 plus shipping. Bruce

If you're set up to work on tractors it's not a bad job. You'll need to split the tractor at the bell housing. We put a pipe in each front cultivator clamp and then blocked up the ends to stabilize the front end when it's detached from the transmission. We then rolle the rear half back on a dolly far enough to access the flywheel. Remove the flywheel from the crankshaft. Heat up ring gear slightly with a torch and it will expand and come right off. In most cases it can simply be turned around and put back on. The inside flywheel teeth will be like new. Glenn F.

The ring gear teeth are beveled on the side that faces the starter. If you flip the gear, I would suggest beveling the teeth to assure smooth engagement of the starter drive gear. Especially if it has a 12v battery. Bruce
