I'm not an expert, but I would go with CPP's torque spring or Plowman's (he has several) spring. Talk to both, they are "masters" at that sort of thing. Tom (CPP) is a pleasure to talk to, I have not had the pleasure to talk to Plowmans. Maybe clutch/torque spring and the "posi" unit? Good luck on your choise, and let us know what you do....it may help other members.
