segment gear in steering box has jumped several
teeth. (right side only) would welcome all
ideas for a repair, short of pulling steering box
 
Since you did say "ALL ideas for repair"...
I don't know that tractor but for $37 you can buy a repair manual from this site that would probably help you with your steering and a host of other repairs.

Just above where the drop arm exits the steering box there are slot screws with locking nuts on either side of the steering box. Loosen the nuts and tighten the screws in until the steering locks, then unscrew until it is just free and retighten the lock nuts. To get the steering back into sequence, remove the trackrods and turn the steering until the gears fall out of mesh. Now pull one steering arm fully forwards and the other fully back. Let both arms drop down until they hit on the gear and push down hard on them both at once with an even pressure. The steering wheel should spin and both arms should end up pointing down to the top bolt of the foot rest peg. If not repeat the process.

Thanks very much for the feedback. Going to give it a try this weekend. This is exactly the info I was hoping for.
 
I'm a big believer in manuals, illustrated parts lists and the like...right now,the fight is with the steering box. Both tie rods have been removed and turning the steering wheel in either direction does not seem to free the sector gears. any suggestions?
