New/rebuilt transmission

FWD? Ya mean 4WD w/5spd? My '90 4Runner did same thing. I took off the
shift lever and replaced a dark green nylon or plastic washer looking
thing - shift lever seat ($10 part at dealer) and replaced old trans oil
with synthetic and never did it again. See link-

As a few have recommended, the shifter seat may be worn and/or destroyed. It
is a very easy/quick fix. I would recommend getting the replacement seat and
socket from Marlin, their two replacements are much better than stock.
Worked great in my truck. They are extremely knowledgeable about these
trucks, if you have any questions about which tranny you have or how to
install these, give them a ring.
