That gear is toast. Find another one
Thanks

That's the reverse idler gear? If so, I'd say you need one too.
Hello:
This is not the reverse idler gear. It sits in the bottom of the case on a removable hatch and meshes with the pinion shaft. It does not transmit power , probably an oil slinger. It almost looks like it was machined. The other gears are fine. .
That is the oil "thrower" gear, it says so in the parts number book, the parts book also shows that gear as definitely having teeth.
If you want it to work, you better find another gear with teeth, an earlier part number for the gear is S-1265, running on a S-1194 shaft, put a advert in the For Sale / Wanted section, there are a few guys around wrecking Cat 30 tractors who will happily lighten your clip.....
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
