Hey everyone. I'm looking for a Lionel 2.08" 50T scale coupler w/coil for a Lionel crane boom car. Lionel has it as unavailable. It doesn't have to be for that specifically but I figure I can get one off another freight car or caboose. Doesn't have to be the whole truck. could just be the coupler.

Part # so we can see what it looks like?
Lionel part number 6209859051
Closest I come is one with rotating bearing caps
Hey if you have 1 matching pair I'll take them!
I only have one with a pickup.
You have 2 without a pickup? Maybe I can add the pickup to it because it just screws into the truck.
I just have found the 70T with 2.2 couplers so far...I will look some more.
I appreciate everyone's help so far.
Nope. Mine are either too long or too short.
Are you referring to the 2460? I have a deck, and two 3-axle trucks both with working coil couplers. But, one of the trucks is missing the "short" coupler side pickup slide. I have axles and wheels for this truck, but all my slides are for standard two axle trucks. Does this make any sense? I do not have the crane, so all of this is of little use to me. I would say the deck, markings, etc is in pretty good shape.
I appreciate your guys help. I was able to get a truck with the coupler. All I had to do was add the collector roller.
A sponsor here, SW Parts located in Niskayuna, New York (suburb of Albany) has an incredible stock of Lionel parts. On his website you can view some of his stock. I would send an email to Bill and ask if he has it in stock. He also maybe able to offer a substitute if there is one. Good Luck
