If you're going to pull the entire gearbox apart, you might as well replace the 5th gear synchro ring. You can get at it fairly easily, since it is the closest one to the rear of the tranmission. Here's a writeup with pictures for replacing the 5th gear synchro on an FD trans. http://mahjik.homestead.com/files/ho...o/synchro.html.
It's not the same as on an FC NA transmission, but the layout is very similar.
