arms and travel look fine to me, but thanks for the input. The left pump is the one troubling, the right is fine.

Been trying to source a part number for the hydo unit left side

Cub calls it 918-05128B
Google that, also look at the label on the hydro case for the HydroGear model.

wow that is over my head for sure, but I did find the issue
the top of the left drive - where the cooling fan "axle" goes into housing - and that is where it is leaking, looks like a rebuild is possible according to video , but ...
so looking now for a left tranny

they are quite pricey I see, perhaps I can find a good used one, but does anyone know an individual or business that can rebuild the one I have ?

sourced a used one , and noticed this - is this a fill port for transmission oil ?

my old one, is leaking fluid , and if this is a fill port perhaps topping it off would get me through the summer. work on replacing when its not 95 degrees Thoughts?

Just spit balling here but if you are trying to just get through the
summer. How about a fluid change to a heavier weight oil?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
