A body 4 speed issues

The issues that I have 2 trannys decide ehich I can used for swap over 3 speed out of 72 duster 318 soon swap 340 anyhow apparely the reverse does not work smoothly and well 1st and 2nd gear my suspicion probably sycros are worn and reverse gear bushing probably worned as well and even shifter mechanism seems wont go reverse very well seems hard and stuck. By the way did align up the holes while adjustment has made and see not much improvement in anyway.
