Re: Some mighty hard shifting

You might only need a linkage adjustment. Get out your Workshop Manual 
and go to F:07:01. You should also make sure everything is lubricated 
and moving freely. If this doesn't help you might have to replace the 
roll pin inside the transmission. As long as you are working around 
the transmission make sure you also check the fluid level As per 
F:03:01. You really don't need anything exotic, #80-90 weight gear oil 
is fine (A:05:01).
