Great idea, Ben!

I have to repeat a tidbit a professional EV builder told me a week or so ago, which was a warning against using Lovejoy couplers in high powered conversions. He seemed convinced they would wear out the spider. I can't say whether that's true or not, and didn't think to quiz him on what type of spider material he was talking about.
