1987 Ford F-150 Manual Trans Question.
I have a 87 F-150 with a manual 4 speed with the granny gear. Yesterday all was fine with the shifting. Today, for no explained reason, I can not get it into 4th gear. 3rd gear will grind a bit to. This started all of a sudden with no prior incidents.

What should I check for first. Second if it might be the trans, what type of 4 speed is it, and what truck years will work.

Thanks
