1st thing i would do is take off the shifter itself off the top of the transmission and see if you can move the shift forks by hand they should all be even when in neutral and have no slack. it could be as simple as the shifter bushings binding up, could be the clutch itself if its on a hill, or could be the transmissions internals could be miner could be major
