ford 2000 industrial backhoe 1964 4 cyl gas

I have a 1964 ford 2000 industrial backhoe , gas 4 cylinder , and 4 speed transmission. I had trouble with first gear locking in while trying to change to reverse. long story short, the gear on the top shaft against the bell housing busted and split apart. the shaft is broken I suspect since the shaft and gears will move up and down. I do not think the busted gear held two shafts together.
My question is where would be best to split tractor to repair ? never done a split except to replace the clutch, pressure plate, and bearing. I split it at the back of engine for this. thanks for any replies. randal
 
Does it have a Sherman reversing transmission or is it a regular 4 speed that has a reverse. If its a Sherman those might be hard to find. I have one with a reverser but I would just as soon have a regular 4 speed. I don't need to go that fast backward.

I'm to old to go fast in either direction but I like the reversing transmission on the 64 4130 I just finished rebuilding. When the post hole auger gets hung on a root, shift to reverse and the pto turns backwards, no more pipe wrench on the shaft to free it up.
 

that sounds like the kind of tranny you need. I am trying to figure out if I need to split the tractor at the back of engine , or back of transmission / rear end. any help would be appreciated.
 

To get to the transmission gears it,s going to look something like this.

Thanks for the pictures. That is kind of what I thought would need to be done. one question, where are the connections for the drive shaft ( clutch ) to the tranny or rear section and PTO ? do they spline together at those locations ? thanks
 
Yes, the transmission input shaft is splined and simply slides out of the splined hub in the clutch assembly when you split the transmission from the engine. Likewise the transmission output shaft and PTO shaft are splined and slide out of the couplers when you separate the transmission from the rear end.
 

I am glad to hear this... the shop manual I have does not clearly show the splined ends, but I thought that might be the case. Thanks for answering my call for help. randal
