Default My 5th gear was acting stupid yesterday

It just started being difficult going in, then for a few shifts, wouldn't go in at all. I tried double clutching, it worked for a bit. Luckily, I was close to home and didn't need it much. When I got home, I lifted the tunnel cover and tried it, (with the car off) and it was fine. Today, it's shifting normally, but I'm afraid it will rear its head again. BTW, I have a KB SS and bushing installed.

What fluid are you using and when is the last time you changed it?

How long has your KB SS/bushing been installed?

5th gear is a difficult one to slam...

Original gear oil, 23k on the odom, it's been about 2k since the bushings were installed. This was granny shifting, BTW.
