Thanks Russ. My thinking was around the same line.
As you can see in this bottom view there is not much room from the rear of the pilot beam to the edge of the frame = Not much room to attach a coupler. I may end up running the attaching screw right into the pilot between the pilot steps. The 2-56 screw that holds the pilot to the frame is too low to use, as the proper coupler height is even with the frame height.
