Could be a few things but most common issue is the 3/4 shift keys get bent and jam up under the synchronizer sleeve. Unfortunately this requires removal and tear down of the unit to repair.

If you go through the whole process and expense, do yourself a huge favor and buy the actual billet keys for this application. Do not replace them with stamped stock keys or cheap powdered metal keys.
