Cub Cadet i1050 Transmission issues

[Tablerock]

Hello,
I have a Cub Cadet i1050 (300 hours) It is not turning left anymore, and extremely slow in forward. I jacked it up, and both wheels are turning. I removed the deck, and everything I could see appeared to be okay. The fans were both working on top of both rear transmissions. Now the question: is this worth the cost to repair? I was quoted $800 to $1000 parts only, no labor. Secondly, is this something a novice could repair? My mechanical abilities are not that great. Thank you for any advice you have to offer.

Regards,

R. C.

Long story But hear it is -- 200 hrs on this machine--
My i1050 has the same trouble as yours I had the dealer replace the drive belt'
That lasted 3 hrs
Took it back and they installed a new belt and 2 Pulleys --- about $ 260.00
One one on the engine and the idler
This lasted about 3 hrs all so. I the the 2 pulley on the trans. in the rear ar in need of replacement
The shop manual is free on CUP CADET.com and it even in color
Let us know what you do
I went out and Bought a Gravley ZT XL

I got it fixed a few days ago! The linkage under the tractor was all that needed to be adjusted. Thank you for the reply. It is for sale now
