Not sure I follow exactly what is going on with your tractor....meaning....not sure if you are having problems shifting while moving or just getting it into gear period.
The synchronizers are used for shifting within the quadrant you are in. So for example, first to third, 6th to 8th, etc. If you are changing between quadrants, you should stop the tractor as the synchronizers were designed for shifting within the same quadrant.
Now...if you are stating that with the tractor stopped and you cannot get it into a gear without it grinding, I'm thinking you have a clutch problem with it not fully disengaging.
If this tractor has sat for a year, good chance the clutch is stuck to the pressure plate/flywheel. If you start the tractor while in gear and the clutch disengaged and it still moves somewhat, tells me then clearly the issue is with the clutch not releasing fully. BUT...PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN STARTING IT WITH THE TRACTOR IN A GEAR! Make sure that no one is nearby, you are in the seat, nothing is around that you can hit and be prepared to shut it down quickly if necessary.
Sorry about the capital letters above as if I was screaming. Heard of too many people doing this and running over people, pets and such. Safety first!
