lightly used 2-axis standard torque servos for sale

Hi everyone,
I'm Rob, and this is my first post on this forum.
I recently completed a Murphy Rebel in Nov 2022 and just recently flew off the Phase 1 airworthiness limitations this month.
The plane is equipped with both roll and pitch servos from GRT. The pitch servo uses a capstan.
The stick forces on a Rebel are fairly high, especially as the speed increases. Regrettably, I purchased the 'standard torque' servos, so in smooth air, the servos can maintain heading and pitch fairly reliably. But the moment it gets slightly turbulent, the pitch and roll 'trim warnings' appear on the EFIS and soon after that, they just can't keep up.
After discussion with Jeff at GRT, it appears I may need the high torque servos.
Would anyone be interested in purchasing my slightly used pitch and roll servos at a significant discount? The servos have no more than 2 hours of active use on them despite the total time on the plane being 39 hours.
you can see pics of the servo installations here:
