Grinding t56

A.m everyone. After working on my cousin t/a all went great never did a t56 his car is a nite and day difference it made me wonder bout mine since I had it for 9 years now and put over 60k on it. So I decided to take my tranny out loe and behold the clutch looked like it had 5 more miles on it till it died lol. So ordered everything new from pilot bearing to pp.now the trannny from the 2-3grinds and is sometimes hard to put into gear and fourth also makes a grind not much tho. Also the shifting in all gears feels notchy and not as smooth as before it's the stock shifter should I rebuild it or get a new one? Or the worst case trans going I have 162100 on it now still breaking in the clutch. Everything is all lined up and bolted underneath

Re: Grinding t56

Are you sure the clutch isn't still dragging when you release it? Did you resurface the flywheel?

Hey injuneer.everthing is lined up cleaned and yes flywheel was resurfaced. It's weird if I pull up on the shifter it doesn't do it but if I don't it does.cross member is bolted in good trans mount is great shape. I'm still leaning towards a worn shifter? The plastic cup in the tranny is good. No cracks or ware
