I cut two pieces of small rubber hose and stuck it in each end of the trunion on each end to take up the slop. They're held in place by a small zip tie. That took the slop out and did away with the changing speed problem. The rubber and hollow inside still leaves for a little cushion when changing trunion angle.
Not only were the springs worn but the steel cage that holds them as well was worn.
Been that way for three years now. If I ever pull the rear end, I'll fix it right.
