indicates a misalignment of the out put shafts either from loose extension housing bolts , bolts not tension in the correct sequence, worn bearings or selector adjustment incorrect and not fully engaging 5th gear in selection
ensure that the gear selector is allowed full movement for full engagement
possible gear synchro dogs teeth are worn and not fully engaging
possible housing is misaligned or rear bearing failure
check for metal bits on the plug magnet
it may require a box out for a partial repair
Gear shift grommets/bushings may be worn or not aligned properly. If grinding, gear is not fully engaged. Check above items to correct, if doesn't correct, may have transmittion problem.
The shift rail fork ends are likely worn. There are fork contact/wear pads that ride in the gear shift sliding collars, and over time, or from low gearbox oil levels/insufficient lubrication, these pads wear, allowing "slop" and preventing the gears from engaging fully. I'd check the brngs, synchro rings and the dog clutch teeth, too. If you see metal/brass or aluminum shavings in the case drain plug, oil or on the bottom of the gearcase...that isn't a good sign. This sounds like a trans issue, not a clutch issue.
Either you have a worn shift fork and fifth is not fully engaging or the synchro for that gear is worn Both are internal and if fork is worn I suggest you have synchro replaced as well..
