I will be darned!
I went out and started my 1811 for the first time since the blizzard and the darn thing had no problems at all with the hydraulics. The blade went up and down and the tractor went back and forth just like normal. I am completely baffled by this, but Im also very happy to have my tractor working like normal. Though I am worried that the tractor may have developed a more complicated problem then a sheared spirol pin.

I think it is possible that the spirol pin is sheared, and possibly is galled to the shaft at present.. it may last for a very long time, or it likely will break loose again- at the bottom of your driveway, or some very inconvenient place.
Murphy's law will never be repealed.

Well I talked to the Cub Cadet service center here in town. The mechanic I spoke with said he believes the problem was the ambient temperature. He said on even new model Cubs the hydro system wont work if its cold enough. He suggested keeping it in the garage and letting it sit and run for a while to warm up.
So I dont know If I have the problem again when its warm out I will know its not that. If I experience the problem again while its cold out still Im gonna hook up some space heaters around the Cub and see what happens. When I get time I will pop the tranny tunnel cover off and take a look inside to see what I can see.

Have you changed the fluid lately?
They can collect moisture, and it doesn’t take but a small amount to freeze in the sump inlet. That will stop all fluid from flowing till it thaws, those hydro's are pretty much trouble free. When it is near o* they still work but need warm up time and they are noisy, as is typical of any hydraulic system when cold. You say the shaft is turning, have you actually checked the rear of the hydro to see if the shaft that is sticking out of the back side of the hydro is turning?? not just the drive shaft between the hydro and the engine.

I agree with AGGITCH, My 1211 sites outside year around. It was -7 a couple weeks ago when I plowed the driveway and normally in the teens and low twenty's. It started rite up and lifted the blade off the ground so I could kick the snow off it. It whines for a minute or two, after that it is no different than in the summer time.

Ol'George, I have not changed the hydro fluid. I honestly have no idea how long its been since its been changed if ever. Its been on my to do list. But what your suggesting about moister in it freezing it something I wondered myself. I have not seen if any of the parts are turning yet as I have yet to take the time to check it.
Aagitch, Jbollis, you guys might very well be right that the service center is wrong. The part that didnt make sense to me was the fact I have run it when its been colder out with out problems, but it has always sat in the garage where the ambient temperature is slightly higher then the outside. So I dont know at this point.

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.
