So it wont shift into those gears only?Did your shiftet get loose?I would check the cable ends make sure they are attached to the transmission and at the inside shifter.

cables are attached. When I shift into the gears it make a grinding noise.

Yeah it sounds like you have some synconizers on those gears the best bet is like the candieman said find a good used transmission.
