I'm expiriencing a dilemma at the moment, I purchased 2 boxes of the old Front Range Products Front runners from a local hobby shop in NJ and would like to know. These kits being either Four Runners, or single kits. I noticed that each box contained 2 car kits. Both boxes only contailed 4 platforms, 2 each, to mount the couplers, ladders, and brake gear. Now here is my situation: <br /> <br />When building the kits as singles, I noticed that you only have 2 platforms/walkways therefor you can only make one complete car. Is this right? <br /> <br />Are there supposed to be 2 platforms, as in the Walthers or Mc Kean single kits? If not, Where do I mount the drawbar on the trailer pad side since there is no provisions for a couple (hance the missing platforms. <br /> <br />Lastly, Are there any places that sell parts for these front runners to get extra platforms? I can't find a Front Range Products resource that sells parts. <br /> <br />Also any pictures of how these look in drawbar fashion would help me. <br /> <br />Thanks everyone.
