I have difficulty getting my car to shift smooth. Mostly 1st gear. You have to be very gentle getting it to go in gear. It will grind if you try to shift it fast. Sometimes there is a little trouble with it not going in other gears, but mostly first gear. The clutch point is high and seems fine.

Any suggestions?

Replace all the bushings that's a must. If it's still a problem with grinding gears it's probably time for a tranny refresh. Dr Evil just did mine and it runs like new. Removed the tranny in about 1 hour and a half leaving the engine in the car. Don't forget new CV joint gaskets for install. Ask me how I know.
