5740 hydrostat, I was going up a very steep hill and half way up I decided it was a bad idea, I let the hydro hold my position while I thought about my options. All of the sudden something gives and I'm rolling backwards full speed! Still alive, but now when I accelerate fwd and reverse, it's very rough, almost like something is holding it back, like the brake is on something. Just at the Start from zero to 2mph. It does it in l,m,and h. I don't even know where to start. No error codes

Sounds like you could have very likely damaged the clutch disk or pressure plate.
