No noise?
There may be an inspection cover on the so-called bellhousing, may be worth starting there. Im assuming its a gear transmission,not hst so in all likelyhood its a clutch issue. But the pto part confuses me,as its a live pto.

The fact that you have no power to the PTO and to the wheels most logically point to a blown clutch (can have a single disk or dual disk clutch) or main shaft coupling.
It does sound really odd that it was working fine then nothing, usually either issue will make noise or would have been slipping.

I did check and I tried both Hi and Low. when I engaged the PTO it is hard to turn by hand but I can spin it. When the PTO is in neutral, it spins freely.
Sounds like linkage is disconnected or in neutral somewhere?
Your PTO sounds normal - it has 2-speeds and a H-N-L selector. The main transmission also has Hi-Neutral-Low range selection for 8 travel speeds. The main clutch is either dual-disk with mechanical shuttle, or single disk with hydraulic shuttle. Which setup does this rig have? Any lettering on the hood?
