does anybody know the reason why my truck does this?

Well the best way is to take off all the wheels and give it a visual inspection. But if removing 4 wheel nuts is too much, then the way to do it is have it upside down on your lap and gently grasp both fronts, then both rears while someone else bumps the throttle slightly with the transmitter. This way you'll be certain all 4 are getting power.

If in all this you've never checked all the drive pins - its time.

While its upside down, take your 2mm driver and find the small half moon cutouts in the skids. There are 2 on each end, one on each side. This is the hole you tighten the drive axle drive pins through. Get a light and rotate wheel until you have the socket end of the drive pin lined up with the hole, make sure each one is tight.

I don't use these plastic 3.3 cvds for center drives, but now that you see what's involved, make sure you check them as well. I check my driveline prob every 6 or 8 runs, I might over do it, but its peace of mind.

so when i hold the two front tires and give it gas, what is it suppose to do? are the driveshafts suppose to still spin or be stuck? am i basically just trying to feel both tires trying to turn?

and i just checked all 4 drive pins...all were snug. thats another thing i didnt inspect (i thought i looked everywhere possible almost at least which is why im aksin you guys)
