Default gm syncromesh strikes again!

i was having a few problems, first off my shift linkage seal leaked, and i had bad axles, and my 4th gear has been grinding for a long time, so i figured while i had to drain the trans, might as well put in syncromesh, i'm impressed

I read somewhere on here that syncromesh only hides the problem but doesnt solve it
