Default T-5z slipping out of 2nd. Bent shifter fork?

I hadnt had this tranny too long before it started slipping out of 2nd. Of course the first thing that I think is that the synchros are going out, but I dont think its that because i never ground the gears and it happened too fast to be from wear. Also the 5th gear grinds going in.
Do the 2nd and 5th gears operate on the same shaft or are they somehow operated by the same fork, or perhaps somehow one affects the other. I may be wrong but this seems more to me like a bent shifter fork. Positive stops are set right too.
