Ken, so far I have been adding a couple of the Kadee red washers to the kingpin screw and generally have to wedge up the backside of the #5's box with a shim of Evergreen plastic. This is a work -around that seem to work but certainly wouldn't be an approved method from a engineering standpoint. Actually shimming up the backside of the box does help offset the coupler droop that affect the #5's.
Just trying to see what others are doing. Bob Werre BobWphoto.com ken garber wrote: > Coupler Height? > > : ) > > I don't have an operating layout yet.
