My assumption right or wrong has been that in some cases the "pin" that moves up and down to hold a normal knuckle in the coupled position could be broke. If so a std replacement knuckle would not solve the problem. The "Emergency Knuckle" pins in place of the regular knuckle but is not dependent on the lift pin to hold it in place. The pin that a knuckle hinges on only is used.
