Sounds like bent shifting rods. Was you banging gears ?

You don't have to rebuild the whole thing...thats good..you just need new rods...

Keep or sell the old one. Dont just toss it.
You or others may need the input shaft, bearings, syncros, etc.

And have your friend keep away unless he has an advance security deposit!

#1.. Check your tranny fluid. Low to no tranny fluid will certainly cause probs.

#2 Do your tranny return spring and bushings still work? It is quite possible there is some broken crap down in the shifter area blocking it from going into certain gears.. I had that prob on my old 86.. I would just have to band it in and out of gears to move whatever piece of crap was blocking it out of the way.

Did you replace the pilot bearing when you replaced your clutch Derek?

I could not get in to gear when my pilot bearing was shot..... that may be your problem.
