The LH hydro will quit pulling after about 30 min of running. Any suggestion on solving? If need to replace-- cheapest place?

Unfortunately those hydros are not servicable. Your discription is classic for failure and end of life for that pump/motor

Pull the motor off and take it to a hydro shop and they will rebuild it.
If not sure where a shop is go to napa

Thanks for the reply.

I have tried to get them rebuilt, but the cost for rebuild vs a new one, was a no brainer. I think for $20.00 more than a rebuild, you can get it new.

I see your point. I would spend the extra $20.

My pumps on my sand dredge run $1200
I get them rebuilt for $200.

Don't know what a new one on a mower goes for

I have had that same problem, I just add hyd oil to the gear box and it works fine for a month or two
