Mower is a Cub Cadet LTX 1050, trans is a Hydro Gear 618-0319 updated now to 918-0319. Does the usual issue of stopping working (and you can hear the whine in the gears) after 5+ minutes of use. I assume I can fix this and have done similar with DANA transmissions in the past. Based on the above description of its behavior after a few minutes of working, what parts am I looking at replacing?
Yes, it has oil in it (filled to the brim).
Yes, the fan blades are clean, not broken, and the tranny itself is clean (no obvious leaks either)
I do not have the full history on this mower, but was told it previously say "commercial use." My guess is that the crappy transmission simply needs a repair/restore.
Any help/advice as to what parts I need to order would be helpful. Swashplate? Cylinder block kit? Seals? Something else?
Thanks.
