So are you saying sooner or later (closer to sooner) I am going to have to replace the clutch all together.
Remember now this is all new to me so when you say things like the M5ROD and ATF I could look it up
but asking you what the heck it is just seems funner.
The synchronizers are in the transmission, it would have to be removed & taken apart & have them replaced & with the trans out I would replace the clutch also. M5ROD is the Ford model of the trans, & ATF means automatic transmission fluid. Ford started using ATF in manual transmissions for easier shifting in cold weather IIRC. The clutch is mounted to the flywheel which is mounted to the back of the crankshaft of the engine. Here are a couple links that show a clutch & manual transmission diagrams to help understand them.
