[quote user="rrebell"] Love you guys that replace everything, got 100 pair of Kadee #5's for 10 cents a pair as someone replaced them all for another Kadee coupler! <div style="clear:both;"> </div> [/quote] Ive been giving #5s and 148s away to people in my club as they are needed (not handing out wholesale).  Ive got a 5lb bag of #5s Im probably never going to use again. When you change out couplers, never glue coupler boxes shut.  You will invariably have to change one for one reason or another.  Always use a screw if possible.  Ive got about 30 cars left to change out from Kadees, and they all either came from the factory with glued coupler boxes (Intermountain) or I glued them shut on initial assembly when I first started in HO 5 years ago.  I thought, gee Kadees are the best coupler available, why would I ever switch to something else.  I found something better.
