Re: steer motor

I was wondering if anyone has a break down of the steer motor in a 740DR32TT, serial# 740-09-BB13906. It is a hydraulic motor, I would call it more of a gear box than a steer motor but whatever. It had a small leak and I am hoping to get this fixed before the holidays (tomorrow), I ordered a seal kit so I didn't have to replace the motor and took it apart before I went to get the part, I just removed the bottom cover so I could leave all the hoses connected, and would deal with the small pour of oil. Well turns out the part will not be in until tomorrow so I came back to the shop and tried putting the bottom cap on and stop the small flow of oil back to a very small drip. I could not get it back together correctly and stop the leak and now it will only spin one way. I am sure I can figure it out tomorrow, I just am reaching out to get some pointers and advice. I really would like a break down of the motor so I know how it works and avoid removing the lines and disassembling the whole thing.
As always thanks in advance, you guys have helped me in the past that's why I am reaching out.

Fact of the week
Every year for Thanksgiving, the President of the United States is given a live domestic turkey by the National Turkey Federation (NTF). While these turkeys used to be slaughtered and eaten, during the presidency of George H. W. Bush it became standard practice for the president to issue a ceremonial "pardon" to the turkey.
