Can anyone help me with a Nitro Blizzard build?

I've built the entire chassis + motor etc., only to start it and find that I have a grinding issue in the gears. The vehicle seems to work great with the transmission in reverse but when in the forward condition, I get the grind. I've done all of the basic trouble shooting such as remove the tracks and check everything for binding as well as make sure the shifter doohickey is either fixed in forward or fixed in reverse just to make sure the servo is not chattering and moving it.

The transmission is the only thing that comes in the kit pre-assembled and I'm pretty sure the issue starts there. When I built the model, I made sure everything was greased and moving smoothly. I'd hate to have to take the whole thing apart to remove the transmission,
