Reply to "lionel 21" passenger kadee conversion - mounting hole not tapped"

Thanks all.

Turns out I have access to a 2-56 tap.  So I'm going that route.  Is it true that the screw mounting the lionel shim to the bottom of the passenger car chassis is 2-56?  Anybody know for sure?   It's bigger than the ones used to mount the kadee coupler box to the shim.  Those are v-e-r-y tiny.  

For the record, only one car of the 6 I purchased failed to have the holes tapped.  It was the baggage car of the 4-pack.  All the others were tapped, and I just finished installing the kadee 747 couplers.  Not too painful, and I only lost 1 kadee spring!
