Crikey, Do you just ram the thing into gear no matter how much it resists, clutch or no clutch. 
Sorry I'm speakingout of term, thats either bad luck or your running a fair few horses under the bonnet, or someone with a left arm built like a tree trunk and left leg like a twig has been changing gear with them.
Were the boxes second hand? It's one reason why I rarely buy 2nd hand stuff or salvage anymore without putting enough aside for a full rebuild and recon (I learnt that the hard way myself ).
Either way something ain't working with that setup. So a stronger rebuilt box is definetly called for
