Darryl: I guess it's a Ford 1710 and you probably know the part number is a Ford part number that may be available from a New Holland dealer. A dealer can determine if the part is in the NH inventory or any dealer's inventory. Models 1310 and 1510 use the same gear.
An OEM manufacturer rather than Ford or Shibaura probably made the gear. If there are numbers on the gear other than the SBA number a good shop might be able to track down an OEM source. Who knows, maybe somebody has a Ford to OEM part number cross-reference.
I'd look for a new gear since compacts are pretty rare in salvage yards and one with a parted out TX would be even more rare. There's a chance that the same gear is on some model of Shibaura but I'm not sure if the Fords used Shibaura TX's or not. There'd also be the problem of cross-referencing Ford to Shibaura numbers.
Hope this helps some. If NH identifies the gear as unavailable or obsolete and can't supply one supply I'd be interested in knowing since I have a 1710. ....

The Ford 1710 FWD was built by Shibaura. The closest Shibaura models do not use that part. If it is not available from Ford , your only other choice is used or to have one made. I don't think you'll find it as an off the shelf part. ....

Useful info from Leonard. It's also sort of discouraging. You pay premium price for a tractor you expect to last for decades and then the very well rewarded corporate types take over and do more acquisitions and mergers. The new company decides its good buz to cut the guts out of the products it acquired by scrapping parts support. Sort of makes paying a premium price for supposed durability seem sort of stupid.
There was some discussion about Mahindra acquiring some rights to Ford compacts awhile back and that may be a source of parts.
I think I'll run the part number through my NH dealer for my own info. If this type part isn't available then maybe it's time for a trade in for what I can get before I break something. If practice of 'parts obsoleting' is common by NH, Isure wouldn't buy another NH product though. I'd always wonder if I'd end up in the same situation 15 years later. I'll post again if my dealer turns up a part. ....
