You can buy new pins...Microtrains #312032 (Walthers:489-312032). The screw idea will not allow the trucks to float. One truck should rotate and not pivot, the other truck should be allowed to pivot. This is the way it should be in HO also but in N this is by design. After taking off the trucks look at the underside of the car. One side has protrusions that keep one of the trucks from pivoting. If you MUST use screws then use a countersunk head or don't tighten all the way to allow the one end to pivot. Good luck.
