ok i started driving my titan and if i give it throttle it makes this grinding noise and the wheels dont turn. the dogbones are in place, when u hold it up and give throttle the wheels will spin, and it the noise wont be as loud, but once u put it back on the ground and do it, it makes that grinding noise. does anyone know how to fix this?

if you do have to replace the diffs just buy two FWD upgrades and put them in in place of the ones already in it. they are exactly the same on both the front and back.

Here, my titan was doing that a while back.. problem was solved when the back off my ear ring (actually flesh tunnel..) fell out and on the floor i found a bushing, the smaller one. So, i popped it in and hey presto it stopped grinding! Hope you find out your problem,

it could be the liftkit. i had to remove mine because it did this, i removed it earlier and now it makes no noises at alll! :) :)

that may be it because i put on the lift kit and then after that it started doing that

Mine just started making the same sound today after i took off the 4wd. Mine only does it when it is on the ground and the body is on it. Any ideas why? I have a stock motor and i know it has the right spacers and the gear isnt stripped.

well i solved the problem either lock your diff. or in my case the problem was that the nubs at each end of the dogbones got worn dont so the diff. cant turn it

well i had the same problem and all i did was tighten up the thing that holds the motor in place and it worked
