Quick question for those with a Lifelike PA or PB unit, are the trucks on these compatible with Atlas mechanisms ? If they fit do they give the same ride height as an Atlas Blomberg or AAR-B truck ?

Yes I want to fit a chassis with one AAR-B truck and one PA truck.

 Do you want to make an FM C Liner? No as far as I can tell  and I have several LL PA locos the trucks will not interchange. Nate Goodman (Nato). Salt Lake, Utah .

Thanks Nate. I'm trying to repower two Rivarossi C-Liners, and the Atlas GP9 has the right wheelbase, and can be fitted with the front AAR-B truck, which just leaves the rear truck to sort out. The 6 wheel Atlas trucks all ride higher that the 4 wheel ones, with the exception of the RSD truck and that's too short, hence why I was look at the PA ones.
