I havent worked on a Case ring and pinion.Now if you arent going to replace the pinion,just my opinion,if the ring is useable,put it back in with enough shims to take the slack out.Check your pattern with Prussian Blue,adjust until you get it in the middle of the tooth.Most of the time damage is caused by it being too far to the outside edge of the tooth.If its in the center of the tooth it will wear out before it breaks.Its hard to say what somebody did in the past unless you were standing there when they did it and knew what happened.It kind of sounds like it wasnt set up right at some time or another.
If you replace the ring I think it would be a mistake.The right way would be to replace the ring and pinion.Another possible thing to do might be see if you can find a good used ring.
If you are going to use it hard then I would replace the ring and pinion.If you are going to play around with it,I would put it back together adjusted as good as you can get it.
The worst thing about being a mechanic is sometimes trying to decide where to start and stop fixing something.If you want to fix something,fix it right is the best way.Money and time and even the weather sometimes affect how something gets fixed or not,but half@ssed fixing something usually means doing it again and again until you finally do fix it right.Just replacing the ring gear seems like half way fixing it,just my opinion.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
