Even if I am going 15mph and have held the clutch in for 5 seconds, if I shift with some force, it will grind from 1st to 2nd.The car will even grind if I put it back into first when stopping at a light or stop sign. I have heard that an aftermarket shifter helps, but I have one and yet it still grinds. I there anything I can do? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>wikdstang</b> <br /><small>Member # 357</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,3,13,16,16,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I feel yea man...
