Up shifting issues

[jnrugg]

About 5 times in the last couple of months I have had an issue with up shifting I believe all times it was going downhill.
Trying to shift from 2-3 or 3-4 and the lever would not move.
It would stay in whatever gear it was in.
Let the clutch out and back in and usually it would shift.
It's a 02 RT with about 28k. I bought it last year and I believe the rear splines were replaced by the previous owner.

The shift linkage has a couple of balljoints that need attention on occasion, try that.:wave

Dry splines usually cause downshifting problems. It maybe a failing slave cylinder. How does your clutch fluid look? Somewhere is posted the instructions for finding and inspecting the slave cylinder for leakage.

I have the Clymer book which is very good, so far.
I'll take a look there and here.

Thanks.
