American Flyer Knuckle Coupler

[AF53]

Need some help here, I have a 1953 Heavyweight passenger car whose coupler needs replacing. I've never done this before. Any advice?

Thanks - Ray

Ray,

           Use a small pair of needlenose pliers to straighten the two tabs that hold the coupler just enough to remove the coupler.

Thanks Jim, I might have time Sunday to try it out.
