    Welcome! Sounds like the transmission you swapped in could be faulty? Maybe the linkage, or synchronizer?

    Welcome! As mentioned the used transmission is probably the issue. Problem engaging 5th gear at higher speeds when 1 thru 4 were not problematic should be indicative of the trans and not necessarily your installation.
