Hi Folks,
I'm fairly green at this coupler stuff. I bought a pile of couplers of e-bay and there is just about every coupler there is. I am now trying to switch over to k-d type and I got about 20 real k-d couplers and some others that look like k=d. What I would like to know can I run all makes together before I go ahead and try to change them.
Thanks for your time.

proto 2k, kadee & backmann are compatable. i would guess your good to go. as long as they couple with each other & you can get the height right i don't see any problems. buy a height gauge. FWIW, proto 2k & kd are the same couplers, just a different name on the package.

Thanks Jerry.
I have a height gauge so now I will get R done. I just wanted to be sure before I went to all that work.
Thanks again.
