After going to Ebay to find one that showed the coupler assembly, ( pictures help so much ) First thing you would need to remove the truck from the frame I would say. Now you may be able to do this and have enough work, without disconecting the wires. I believe (from memory) they have extra wire in them and you just have to cut a tie-strap. Then give us a pick of the top of the coupler area on the truck so we can see what we are working with. I donot have any K-Line at present but do believe it is possible. Maybe some one with one can comment and help you better
