[TR] Anti rattle spring and plunger

[tfansher at comcast.net]

I had this happen at the Funkonna at VTR 2007.  I ordered a new ball and spring to only have it happen again here in Florida. So now I'm driving without the ball and spring and the vibration/noise is not a problem. I guess the fix is to replace the shift lever and the ball and spring, but I'm happy the way things are. 
hope this helps
