This can be from a failed rear main gear shaft bearing , an extension housing bush worn out and or teeth on the synchro dog being worn to a taper and no longer parallel. Mostly the rear extension housing can be removed with out the necessity of removing the box. but if the bearing has failed then the box will have to come out .
This is not a clutch problem this is a worn part in the transmission causing this, have the transmission removed and torn down and inspected to see what is worn out and affecting the 5th gear.
You most likely have a bent 5th/Reverse shifting fork inside the transmission and it is not moving the syncronizer fully into gear. You must remove and disassemble the transmission to fix it.
the shift linkage may need to be adjusted a bit or the shift forks and engaged gears for 4th and 5th may have worn enough that they need to be inspected and fixed.
You're 5th gear syncro has just gone out. It keeps your shift forks and slider gear from popping off. It also makes it possible to shift the gear in. It's going to take a rebuild of the transmission to fix this problem.
Pull the shifter out and look, as there is a plastic "ball" at the end that may be worn out. Take off the shift boot inside the cab, and notice a collar around the shifter, push it down and turn counter clockwise to release it.
