Have you checked the clutch at all? Could that be the issue?

Kickin' up mud

A buddy of mine has a 96 Cherokee. His made a grinding pretty bad. He ended up needing a new transmission. He tried changing the fluid with Royal Purple, but only helped for a week. Like Hooligan said, talk to Brinker88. He knows his stuff.

Usually if a synchro is bad, it will be 2nd, 4th, and reverse.
Probably a bad gear. You can try Lucas trans treatment, but no promises, could make things worse. I would say save for a JY tranny and swap, then rebuild your current tranny while using the JY one.
