That sounds like your rear ring and pinion, call axial customer support and they should send you new ones. That will get you up and running. In the Future, you may want to replace them with the HD gears (#AX30395). I run those front and rear with no problems, ALWAYS check the gear mesh and shim accordingly.

Thats the rear diff. I just destroyed 2 myself in under 3 hours. If you got it at a local hobby shop take it back and show them what is doing. Have them send it back or give you another one. If they give you any flack call axial.
