need help, symptoms of a 5 spd transmission ... need synchronizers?
 

I have a 92 wrangler. It shifts dowm fom 1 to 5 fine, but downshifting
it does not like to engage especially from 4 to 3 3 to 2. Is this most
likely synchronizers that need to be replaced?
----------------------------------------------------------------
If so, is it just as well to get just the the syncs replaced in the old
transmission, or get a full rebuilt transmission?
----------------------------------------------------------------
What can I figure as ballpark costs to have it fixed or replaced?

thankz

Just learn to double-clutch it, everything will be fine.

Make sure you're using the right fluid. My T-5 on my '82 Scrambler starting
doing that when I was using GLI-4 gear oil, but stopped when I replaced it
with Dexron ATF (recommended by the factory service manual). If you
haven't changed you fluid in a while, try that too.
