Wayne,
Yes that would be an easy modification. But if I went that route, I have a feeling I would want to change the trucks, then want to modify this, or that, and then it just becomes another unfinished project that I am waiting on parts for.
Instead, I think I will build it per instructions, knowing that if I ever so desire changing trucks and bolsters is pretty easy and can be done on an otherwise completed car. For now, I think I will body mount the couplers just in preparation for that potential and future modification.
