Messed around with the u-joint that was not attached.
Got it out of the way and now HST is working.
(Maybe had the HST shaft in a bind so it would not turn?)
My new question, I cannot re-connect this u-joint from the top.
Can it be done by coming up from the bottom?
I have a belly mower so I was unable to try and did not want to remove the belly mower if it cannot be reached from the bottom.

Thanks

There is a u-joint on the right side of the HST that has disconnected.
I assume this is for the front wheel drive?
I cannot re-connect from the top as it seems there is not enough room.
Can this be done by coming in from the bottom once the belly mower is removed?
