GRINDING GEARS

Alright well i got a 1988 Jeep Cherokee/Pioneer with a ax-15 manual tranny. It only grinds going into 3rd the most,and sometimes 2nd and 4th. However once it's in gear it drives fine. And also it will randomly not go into any gear and i have to turn it off and shift it through the gears with it off and then crank it up and keep driving but it's left me stranded now so i'm trying to find out what it could be i know it's fine on fluid it doesn't leak. Please let me know any useful information.

which fluid? sounds like you're not pushing the clutch in all the way, are low on clutch fluid, or have air in the line.

check ur clutch line fluid first then change ur transmission fluid, but it sounds like u may have worn out ur clutch if it drives fine once its in gear
