I'm sure you're aware the Kadee #5 uses a totally different method than the 802
for centering.
Somebody needs to sweet talk Ron Sebastion into selling separately the
centering springs he's using on his SSA Flyer Compatible couplers. I
transplanted the ones when I converted the EJ&E S-Fest boxcars to scale.
They're larger and stiffer than what the 802 uses, work just as well and no
bouncy-bouncy.
Also, doubling up on the Kadee 802's centering spring seems to reduce the slack
somewhat.
