Been noticing a challenge getting it into 4th for about a week in my '75. Now, fully impossible. Where do I start looking first? Thanks.

Check universal joint at fire wall, cone screws as stated. Check for anything interfering in the inside tunnel as that is where the guide tune for the clutch is. If all in good shape, disconnect linkage at trans and see if you can shift it by hand. If not, the problem is likely internal. Fork bolt may have come lose. The good news, this is an easy fix if internal and I can walk you through it.
