Are you having problems going into reverse? If so, check your shifter bushings. Your synchroses could be bad for 5th Gear.

there was a similair problem on my m2b4 trans. i took it apart and found the slider teeth (the thing that slides over the gears to select them) were worn. but the way they were worn it didn't like to slide over the syncro and gear. i took it out and flipped it around after cleaning it up some what. now fifth is easy, although reverse now sucks. but its not used as much as fifth will be.
