Alright my 95' GT seems to grind just a little in downshifting to 1st but u have to be almost stopped and then downshift to 1st to make it not grind. And also from 3rd gear to 4th it grinds a little. What is this!?

EDIT: Sorry *Synchro*

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

Probably a worn blocker ring. Just don't downshift to 1st. It's really not an issue until it grinds all the time.

I wouldn't be worried until it gets hard to shift up. But sounds like you might have some early signs. Sometimes luck out changing fluid.
