The little white clips in the shock bag clip onto the shock shaft to limit how far the shock can travel up. Without limiting, the suspension travels too far and pushes the outdrive upwards ruining the shim (washer) under the large gears in the diff (sun gear).
Stock shim is 5x10x.2.
Below are .3 thickness and tighten up the gear mesh.

You need new shims, stock or even better .3 thickness.
You probably need a new gear set for the rear diff as well.

There are instructions on diff assembly in the manual.
