What I do is mock up a Kadee coupler box on the bottom of the car, place a center punch through the center hole in the coupler box and mark the floor of the car. Remove the coupler box and drill a #56 hole where you marked with the center punch. Then tap the hole with the 2-56 tap and you can now screw on your coupler with no need to glue anything. Thats how I have done all my coupler mountings and the method has worked well for me. <br /> <br />James R. Mitich. <br /> <br />Quickly becoming the master of Big Sky Blueness.
