Bachmann Spectrum SD45 Coupler Conversion

[nscalesteve]

I have a local customer who is in the USA on a one year assignment for his company...

he must be from Australia or Austria, right... ?

I used a 2004 coupler. I belive I had either reused the Bachmann screw/hole or I filled in the area infront of the screw hole with styrene and drilled/tapped the MTL screw hole. You may have to file the front of the truck gearcase and/or the back of the couler a bit to make it fit.
