Hard time getting 5 speed transmission to go into 1st and 2nd gear.

Check your engine and tranny mounts.

If one is broken, the shifter can bind up against the body.

Second, make sure it is full of fluid.

Re: jeep transmission
 

It would help if you gave us some more information:
Model/year of vehicle?
"to go into 1st and 2nd gear" under what circumstances... sitting still or
moving?... motor running or not?...
down-shifting?... up-shifting?...

Re: jeep transmission
 

You don't say which tranny you have but if the lube level is where it
should be (also clean and not full of water ) then it's probably
either the syncros worn out (rolling) or a dragging clutch (stopped).
