You're the man Bill - if trying the new tranny fluid does not remedy
the problem, do you think replacing the synchros is the way to go. How
do I know if I have an AX5, AX4, or AX15?

Never heard of an AX-4 on a Jeep. The AX-5 comes with four-bangers, the
AX-15 comes with the six cylinder. When you add gear lube, do drain out
what's in there and replace it with a GL-3 or GL-4 like Redline MT-90
which is really the only aftermarket gear lube that meets the specs for
both the AX-5 and AX-15.

Thanks Jerry - Once I drain and replace, how soon (do you guess) I
should know whether on not this remedies the problem?

I would highly recommend you get at least one of the inexpensive manuals
like the Haynes. It gives all the basics and settings for everything
and is real handy when tinkering around on them.

You will find 2 bolts the same on the tranny. One will be in the very
bottom and a second looking exactly the same will be in the side about
half way up.

It is easy to drain but a bit of a pain to fill. I usually add a chunk
of gas line to the end of the oil bottle which helps getting it back
in. I also warm the oil up first. Molasses in January has nothing on
cold gear oil.....
