One trick to aid grinding synchros, which we have had quite a bit of success with, is to use a 50/50 mix of gear lube and ATF. The ATF has plenty of lube, but also has a butt load of detergents which really clean the synchros up and usually gets them working again. This might be worth a shot before seeking a new tranny...
