I'm thinking most likely the lower gearbox and I fired it without a upper gearbox and it spins but once I put the upper it does a noise of awfulness .
With the battery disconnected,open the two halves and turn the gears by hand. You will be looking for any sheared off gear teeth on all of the gears. go here for good tutorial on dissasembly/reassembly.

These are not ics teardowns but can still be used as a guide as the ics is close to a tm ver 2 mech
