An uncoupling lever assembly for a railroad car has first and second lever members. A plurality of sleeves are attached to one of the lever members. The other lever member extends through the sleeves in telescoping relation to the one member. Each sleeve is lined by a pair of oppositely-disposed, generally L-shaped glide members. Each glide member has a base with flexible hooks engaging a portion of the sleeve. An integral leg extends from the base and lies next to an adjacent portion of the sleeve.
