My Cub 1800 transmission (not hydro-stat)started skipping in forward or more accurately disengaging/engaging in forward only.It was doing it only once in awhile but now it's getting more frequent.Is something out of adjustment or worse?I can get the model # if needed.
 
Dale go pages 20-22 in your manual for adjusting drive system. Or replacement of both drive belts as recommended per manual. Online manuals @ CCparts Lookup at top ^.

It doesn't seem to be belt slipping.Sometimes the tractor will stop then suddenly slam back into gear,other times it will stop and I will have to manipulate the shift lever back and forth to get it to engage again.I'm trying to get any info I can before I solicit my local dealer's opinion...
 
Dale - Sounds like it's coming out of gear. The teeth could be worn bad or shift forks worn.
Another thing could be a key on some shaft is sheared and gripping / slipping.

Just experience stuff BTDT type. Not going to look into what you actually have but some of what I've found happens so you've got something to check.

Good luck
