Big ends don't sound like 'grinding'.......... but gearboxes do!! esp as it only happens when in gear..... mine had started to whine slightly, then last week it broke, no real warning, BANG... that was that!

As ron said,more likely gearbox. If it's a classic,then you can pick em up cheap enough.

Unless it's the thrust bearing,much cheaper if it is!
