Probably has bent or broken shift keys in the 3-4 syncro assembly. Its a common problem with T56 transmissions and can be resolved with a solid key instead of a stamped key in most cases.

It's time for a rebuild. If 3-4 is acting up, then the rest of the trans isn't far behind. In order to do the job right, the trans needs to be completely freshened up and upgraded (like mentioned above). There's not necessarily just a part or two that need to be replaced. If you decide to send it off for a build, check my sig. We have a very quick turnaround.
