Reply to "Has anybody come up with fix for non-locking coupler on menards"

As noted above, I took the simple route, and used the super glue which worked like a charm.  I was going to try Wild Mary's suggestion to use "Coupler Binders" (three posts above), but my exhaustive search of the Menard's website failed to turn up the necessary parts.

Hopefully, one day, I'll get more ambitious and use GUNRUNNERJOHN's excellent fix.  Unfortunately, the Menard's couplers do not appear to be repairable with tape or rubber bands -- much better than my old standby for other couplers -- black, trimmed twist-ties!

I have try saying this at least three times but someone keeps coming back suggesting it. So my only guess they don't have any Menards cars so they don't know what they are talking about. At least you like I know it won't work with rubber bands/twist ties/ or other items similar.
