Define "back together". What state was it in previously? It almost sounds like a clutch that's slipping or a missing pin on two parts that mate tight but not tight enough under load. Is it making any funny gear sounds?

Is yours electric or nitro? If it is electric, check the slipper settings. Also, if the slipper pads and plates arent new, after sitting awhile, they will slip even if it is all the way tightened. If its not that, check to make sure you didnt break a dogbone (they used to have a habit of snapping the pin at the transmission end), or the pin behind the hex. If those are fine, next, check the pins and washers in the diff.
