Hello. It seems the 'shift fork' is either 'misaligned' and/or 'bent' in 3rd, 4th, 5th and REVERSE. It's, also, possible those gears are 'stripped' on their shaft(s); making driving that truck, in those gears, impossible. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.
If it grinds when trying to shift, it is the synchronizers. Rebuild. If it pops out of gear. there is a plastic part at the top of the transmission that wears out. It fits around the ball of the shifter. It is two pieces. You'll have to remove the floor plate and pull it up to access the bolts to remove the shifter and replace those plastic pieces.
Sounds like one of the levers inside the transmission is either broken or otherwise disengaged. Remove the shifter to see if you can see any obvious reason.
It sounds like you might have a bad busing in your shift linkage. The run from the bottom of your shifter to the transmission check those bushings and make sure that everything is in place under your shifter.
Hope that helps you.
They had a problem with this plastic washer that is in the shifter tower it sits just under the shifter it self and gets worn out and causes this to happen- hope that helps.
