Reply to "Lionel 027 Scout: Why does the flat spring on rear coupler force rear truck upwards, instead of downwards onto the track?"

I'm going to back up. I see the tangs are bent in the opposite on the 2 different trailing trucks. So the 1130 truck would probably not work. My bad. But you could pull one wheel and add the parts as shown for downward pressure on the axle and wheels.
