I was driving my 98 Corolla LE, Manual Tran, when suddenly the lower half of the gear box (2, 4, R) was no longer engageable. I can still put it in 1st 3rd and 5th, but everything below neutral seems to be gone.

What could possibly be going on?

Thank you for your assistance,

Hi jragernorth and welcome to 2carpros

You have an internal tranny problems-could be synchronizers/bent shift forks/worn detent balls etc.
