First thing you need to check is the bushings at the transmission side of the cables. If those are good then you probably have a synchro going out. New fluid might help. Check your owners manual to see if it takes ATF 4 or a special fluid, I can't remember which.
As far as is it worth it? Do you plan on keeping the car for another 60k or are yuo going to get rid of it soon? Buying a new car entails a payment but if you buy a new Chrysler you get lifetime warranty.... I can make the argument either way. Which way do you want me to convince you?
