Thats caused by either:

- Bent chassis or engine mount causing misalignment between spur and pinion gears

GX-REX beat me to it, but check the condition of your pinions....if you've sucked a rock in, its probably still caught in your pinion, or it would have chewed that up too.
- Slipping 2 speed clutch causing overheating of spur gear assembly is most likely, whats pinions?

thanks for the help
