Ok what's wrong with my skidder when put it in gear and the drive shaft stops to the winch and it wont move unless you speed the engine up and it takes a couple seconds to move like it slips.it just started after we took a lunch.no prior issues

Powershift trans low on fluid?  Did you spring any new leaks?

[K.P.Outdoors]

No it's full and hasn't leaked any out since I got it 6 months ago.

fiber drive gear??

[K.P.Outdoors]

If it was the fiber drive gear wouldn't it stop the trans all together. If you rev it up it will still move but at idle it stops and it will start to die as the fuel pump also stops.once the winch shaft is turning it will stay running but if you move the steering  lever it all stops.then you got to rev it up go get it all moving again

You need to be a little more clear and concise in your words to get more accurate troubleshooting help.   "It" and "die" are too vague and vulnerable to interpretation.  The engine starts to stall or the transmissions output ceases to continue moving the machine?   Are you saying the fuel pump is causing a low power condition?  If the load is stalling the engine this sounds like an engine issue more than trans or winch.  

Is there a torque convertor that is failing to unlock?  Or two gears in the trans trying to be engaged at once?  The big fork in the road is determining whether you are having insufficient power or excessive load.  .. Or worse, both.  

Does the machine stall out?  If so is it under load only or does it just sputter out on its own?

[K.P.Outdoors]

It runs fine it's just that the winch shaft will stop rotating if you put it in gear f or r.if you try to steer or raise the blade.if you rev it up it spins again.if in gear and you rev it it will take off

You could remove the driveline to the winch and see if the same condition exsist on the output yolk, at least that tell which way to go.
