I would like to replace the small wheel trucks that are on a 1:20.3 spectrum log skid car with the standard, large wheel Bachmann freight trucks. It looks like the body mount coupler needs to go, which is a shame, as its really nice. It seems that the rounded front of the tang needs to be removed and the coupler arm itself needs to have about 1/2" removed with a new hole drilled for the attachment screw. If the large wheels trucks are used without modification, the height is OK but there is a huge amount of spacing between cars.
Has anyone done this? I would appreciate any specific advice on the best way to do this, before I start cutting away.![Smiley :)](https://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
