Hey Ian,
have you checked the spring and coupling on the input shaft? If you look at plate #7 and #9 of the ELdo parts book, it shows this part assembled and exploded. This setup is supposed to lessen the shock transfer between the engine and transmission.
I wonder if there could be:
-splines are worn/damages
-spring is weak/damaged
-the coupling surfaces are damaged or too much play.

I think the input shafts on the 4spd and 5spds are the same, just that the 4 speeds used bushings and the 5s used roller bearings?(someone correct me if I'm wrong.
