I use these shims
Pete to date I haven't had a single truck come apart. While it is certainly possible that it can come apart with those screws out, I've never had an occurrence. With the high end atlas cars I'm buying there's a lot more that would break under rough handling anyway :-).
And... sure you've seen it before...
Why I like kadee couplers video
Apparently, Micromark no longer carries the Kadee shims based on the page that pops up when clicking on the link above. Might have to find something else or make your own shims.
The package of 60 shims is still available, I just ordered some and received a promotional discount. I think that Micromark stopped producing the package of 40 shims. Here is the link:
