Tranny Help

ramhemi is probably right. But you might try readjusting your shift linkage & check that your clutch is releasing fully. Also, what lube do you have in your trans? Back when I was driving my car I had a lot of trouble with hard shifting & grinding when downshifting. The trans had gear lube in it because that's what everybody said to put in there. Later found out that Mopar specified ATF & that could've been my problem. Won't know until I put the thing back together, since it's been apart for about 27 years!
