Finally found a Yamaha dealer in my area who knew that Yamaha even made a lawn tractor

Most of the shops only deal in atv, cycles, shomobiles, outboards or musical instruments

The dealer had a partial breakdown of the transmission area but the hydro unit itself is n/a

If it was available the price at the time was $896.

I went to a local bearing company and was able to order a bearing that would fit what I need and some spacer races to make up the difference in proportion required for a total cost of $37.00

After I put the unit back together I will post to let you know if these units can at least be repaired with some "field engieering" and post sime pictures of the process.
