These items pertain to the trucks used under the 85-foot Pullman cars. 

a.  Has anyone ever tried to fix the problem of the little plastic studs at the 
ends of the bolsters working loose, maybe a drilled hole and machine-screw 
solution.  I thought I saw a successful remedy like this some years ago.  

b.  Has anyone tried something on the order of a swing bracket that effectively 
gives a radius of about an inch of swing when used with either the 802 or #5 
boxes.  I found the KaDee HO swing brackets are more detailed and complicated 
than I can single-handedly use.  Maybe an inverted channel piece that takes a 
draft gear box in a pocket then hinges from a screw about 3/4" back of the back 
of that box, may need a carry iron on the front to support.
