I have six older n scale passenger cars with Rapido couplers, and I want to covert them to knuckle couplers. I have purchased several (like a lot) Micro Trains Line 4-Wheel and 6-Wheel Passenger Car Trucks with adjustable couplers ... MT 1017 and 1018 ... and CANNOT get them assembled.
The screw to attach the coupler to the truck is much, much too small for me to deal with. To compound matters, the knuckle coupler box is quite fragile, and I can't reassemble it after it pops open and the miniature spring goes flying! I have ruined five truck/coupler sets so far and have reached my limit. I've looked and looked for passenger car trucks with fully assembled couplers and been told no such animal exists.
I would gladly pay someone to assemble these truck assemblies! Does anyone know someone who could help?
