Up… loader and 3 point hitch works fine…I can raise bush hog up and it seems to move better
Yeah more information.
Are you suspecting the transmission?
What is the transmission? hydro, manual, "power shift" type?
Just the model # would require most to have look it up and tractors and basically the same with just a few variables, mostly transmission.

What color is the tractor?
Maybe there's a fortune teller or mind reader forum out there, but I'm done with this guessing game.
Bad clutch will always slip in higher gears first. Pto will also slow down in sync with tractor slowing down. If engine speed stays the same while tractor and pto are slowing down then your clutch is likely bad. You should have appx 5/8" free play at the top of the clutch pedal. Do you have that?
A YM2610/D has a PowerShift transmission.
That is why it is important to check both tractor movement and pto speed. the powershift transmission can slip because of the hydraulic clutches, however, the pto will not slip unless the main clutch is bad or splined couplings/shaft splines are bad. And in that case the pto would likely not turn at all.

My 63 Ford has a 2 stage clutch. 1 disc. for the PTO gears another for the main drive. I can disengage the Drive with the clutch pedal and let the PTO stay in operation. As long as I shift the PTO in gear like the YM2000. Nice option!!

I suspect the PowerShift springs.
