1450 has hydro issue

Hopefully someone can direct me what to look for and how to repair the ole gal.
The last 3 weeks, it seemed the tractor was using more effort than usual to move. RPMs are 3600 by the tach. Yesterday, I was mowing and went to stop but the brakes didn't hold because the lever didn't return to neutral. I made another round and when I stopped to back up, the lever won't go into forward or reverse. I removed the tunnel cover and the linkage is trying to move, but the plate on the trunnion isn't trying to move. Hydro filter was changed this year. Trunnion was redone about 2 years ago. Thank God I have the auto valves and was able to push her home & into the shed.
