Frozen Stiff

I use my Farmall Cub to plow snow, but I think it has a frozen spot in the driveline. When it's below freezing (most of the time here in NY in the winter), the tractor won't move. The engine starts, the clutch works, the gear shift and PTO levers move normally, but it's as though the tractor's attached to a tree (it's not, I looked). When I let the clutch out, the engine will stall. When it's right around the freezing point, I can pop the clutch and it will "snap" into movement, but when it's really cold, I have to run the engine for 15-20 minutes (heat transfer to the driveline?) and rock the tractor to get it to move - sometimes without success. My question is: Any ideas as to whether I might have water in the differential or the wheel housings? The brake rods move freely, so I don't think it's them. It's supposed to be warm enough to work on it this weekend, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
