Help blaster trans cracking/slipping

[Scspeed]

I have a 2003 yamaha blaster and it all started when i started jumping it really high, when landing i would hear a big POP or CRACK and i finally figured out it was coming from the transmission. Now it doesnt only pop or crack when im landing a jump but now it does it anytime the quad is under a heavy load, whenever im at full throttle and under a load it pops and cracks alot and feels like its slipping.

My guess is since it is doing it in every gear that maby the final drive gear is slipping or maby a gear coming from the crank to the trans is stripped or warn,

What do you guys think? Ever had this happen to you??

If i drive easy and dont put the quad under any load it drives fine..

check your chain rollers first, you may have broken something in the clutch basket/gear. definitely check the rollers and chain before blaming the trans

well theres no doubt the sound is coming from the bottom end, im gunna have to pull the right side clutch cover off and see whats up. I really hope its not the trans, i think its gotta be one of those gears going to teh trans or from the clutch assembly to the crank, somthin like that...

drain your gear oil first and see if theres any sign of debris in there
