Yeah I’ve checked both front and rear diffs no shavings or damage on them but when I get on the throttle quickly it hesitates and sounds like it’s hardly making contact and eventually grabs the gears and goes if that makes sense.

Need to isolate where the slippage/ stripped gear is coming from. Usually the Fr or Rr. I say it's the the rear most of the time. At least for me. Gets the most drivetrain loading at the rear. More wear and tear occurs there. But could be the front also . If you never shimmed or checked your diffs before.
If it happens when you brake hard, usually it's the front diff . If it happens on hard initial acceleration, usually it's the rear dff.
Been there numerous times.
You need to absolutely go over ALL 3 diffs now! What I would do. You never touched them before. Best to get a fresh start with all 3 diffs in perfect running condition. Do it right. Start wrenching. Focus on One diff at a time. Hopefully starting with the bad one. Learning to find which one, is part of diagnosing diff issues. I bet the others will also need attention. Because one by one they will also fail much sooner than later, if never touched out the box first.
Let us know how it goes.

I did that after I took apart my rear diff but thicker oil in and shimmed it when I pick one end of and roll it on carpet all wheels spin for instance when I grab the front bumber and pick it up an inch roles the rear all tires spin pretty freely with out it clicking really loud or slipping I haven’t ran it yet to check it but I’m assuming that’s good let me know
Well I got the first diff apart cleaned it all up put new diff oil in and shimmed it seemed to help a little but not totally fixed moved on to the center diff and it seemed like it was catching and did the same the center but haven’t tested it yet of it fixed anythingDo what @Jluther@becoinc stated above.

It’s like the motor is spinning making noise for a few seconds when you wanna give it quiet a bit of throttle but it’s not really moving and than grabs a gear and goes hope that makes sense
I’ve checked and taken apart the rear and center diff shimmer them and put diff oil in them still have the same issue not quite as bad but still noticeable
