Default Landslide gear issue

Hey I bought my Landslide a little after christmas and I ran it a few days without issue, other than forgetting to set my failsafe properly and nearly destroying the whole thing. About the end of the first week of using it about a tank or 2 a day I noticed it was slowing down adn jerking some and then eventually it stopped. The gear that connects the tranny to the gearbox had become stripped. I am planning on ordering a new one and I was jsut wondering what I should do to prevent this gear from stripping like that again? I might have messed it up when I ran head on into a tree but I am not sure. Are there any screws that I should check and tighten specifically for my problem? Thanks
