tranny question

OK so now that i got the whole take off thing fixed ( jumping in first when it was cold, turns out it was driver error ) but now i have another question

i was reading the new post today about the syncros (sp?) and i know my 4th gear one is shot. i can usually get around it buy double clutching it slowly, someitmes i have to floor it netrual between double clutching, because sometime the double clutching still makes 4th grind, if that happens it usuall will resolve if i floor it inbetween 3rd and 4th.

is there anyway to solve this other than replacing the syncro?

or is that even the problem?
