TJ R1 / Truck Jig / Freight Car Truck Holder / HO

Description: TJ R1 / TRUCK JIG / for "HO" trucks The [ Truck Jig ] is a tool designed to hold the Central Valley freight car truck bolster. This allows you to drill out the boss to the needed diameter.I suggest using a “Pin Vise” and drill them by hand so you do not destroy the truck. Most freight cars have 1/8th inch bolster king-pins and need a 0.1285” bore (#30 drill bit) in the trucks. Mantua freight cars with a metal under-frame have 9/64th king-pins and require 0.147” boss (#26 drill bit) in the trucks. The Jig was originally conceived to hold Central Valley trucks, but it fits most (2 axle) freight car trucks, although some have to be upside-down.Kadee trucks will not fit this tool. The [ TJ V2 ] will fit Kadee trucks. The center void extends all the way through the jig. The mounting holes will accommodate a #6 screw to attach the truck jig to a piece of wood or bench top. à Note: Trucks are not included! Trucks are shown for illustrative purposes only.
