Ok, I got an 01 dodge 5 speed. About 3 weeks ago it started to rake 3rd, I assumed a syncro. Well other day I went to down shift into 3rd and it wouldn't release. I mananaged to wheel it into my shop. pulled the shifter out, took a screw driver, and popped it out of gear. I tore it apart, and installed a new syncro, input, and mainshaft bearings. I decided to shift it before I installed it. Still trys to hang in 3rd. I removed the shift forks, and rods to inspect, and it doesn't seem to be the problem. If anybody has any advice, I would sure appreciate it. Sorry for the long post.

Well it turned out to be the springs in the syncro hub on 3rd gear. Was causing the slider to stick.
