Car won't shift into 6th whether it's on or not it shifts smoothly into every other gear but 6th it won't go into, and it doesn't grind or make noise.

I would check the shift cable condition first because the cables can stretch or come apart at the cable ends. Here is a guide (below) to help you see what's going on also. If the cale are okay the transmission will need to be removed and the shift forks checked. I have added a diagrams for than as well. Please let us know what happens.

Hey, so, I dropped my transmission and looked at the forms and the one from 5th to 6th is bent. It explains all the looseness I've had in 4th as well. Another question, how would I bend them back or where could I get a replacement?

It will just bend again from fatigue, I would get a new part.
