I've been thoroughly convinced that I shouldn't be tempted to dop in the 5 speed and that's fine with me. But I do still have this sort of grinding mechanical noise in first gear. Am I on the right track thinking this is indicative of a worn transmission? Should I be worried about total failure or is this something that is likely to just make some noise? Could it be something else like a rear axle bearing, etc?

Is this a job for a do it yourselfer? It is certainly awkward to get to it under the car, and I don't have a lift (just jackstands)
