Good evening,
3 years ago I replaced the ring gear on my Ford 2N and measured that it was .010" bigger inside diameter than should be. When I did searches I found others had complained of them slipping and were welding them on. I felt like there was a better option.
So it has been 3 years since I installed the ring gear using green penetrating loctite instead of welding it like others do.
The ring gear has not moved and I think welding the gear on is damaging and unnecessary.
use green penetrating Loctite. Since the gear is thin and Loctite is anaerobic, apply household sealant or silicon around the joint after applying the Loctite to seal off oxygen and ensure it cures.
Loctite on a 12" diameter can take a lot of torque. I used household sealant and just left it.
I realize there may be applications where this is not strong enough like a diesel requires more torque, but it will probably work on a lot of small tractors.
