My Kubota L47 TLB lost hydraulic 100% to my power steering, front end bucket, and up/down of my backhoe and stablizing arms. The tractor can still move forward/backward and backhoe can swing left/right. Fluid level looks full. Does that sound like my pump broke?

Yes sounds like either a pump or pump drive failure.
Or sometimes a hydraulic return or loop connection issue can cause problems.
The swing uses another separate pump.
They share the same filter so not likely a suction issue, but still could be after the filter.
Did this happen suddenly?

Yes,
I was digging and heard a sudden snap noise and lost those described hydraulics immediately. Do you think it is a pump or pump drive that I or a mobile mechanic can fix because I can't get my tractor to a shop with the backhoe attached and bucket down and I can't seem to figure a way to get the backhoe off with the dead hydraulics not able to rock the unit off the chassis. Any thoughts? Thanks so much!

Yea that should be able to be a field repair.
Might be really tight depending on where the loader arms are compared to the pump.
Pulling the pump and drive is fairly easy and should give you instant answers to what failed.
Please report back on what you find.
