Sounds like 3rd gear synchro to me.

Not sure what you mean by "changing a rubber on the outside of the gearbox".

Yes, the gearbox shares the same oil as the diff.

Agree with Peter, sounds like synchros are on their way out.

If you need a box build we are only down the road from Rugby!

If it's crunching then those won't do anything to help it unfortunately.
