I use this mower to mow the barnyard, sooooo...
One of the hydrostats on my Deines zero turn mower is showing classic signs of having either a worn pump or drive motor (the other one isn't a whole lot better). Works fine for about 20 minutes and then struggles to get out of its own way, etc.
Has anyone ever rebuilt one of these? My understanding is that the pistons or the bores are wollered out enough that there is pressure loss. I haven't ever had one apart but I don't think I have anything to lose. They retail for about $800 new and I am sure I can gets parts from Eaton or an aftermarket supplier cheaper.
