Mark, Check the cost via Fedex Ground service. They are generally quite a bit less than UPS for comparable service. It should be covered under Fedex Package service (sames as UPS). They can also provide regular trucking service now and they have a link there to access that service which is probably more expensive than the Package Service cost. It is generally a worthwhile saving to go Fedex instead. _____________________________________________________________________ Ralph Ausmann - Hillsboro, OR - Ol' Retro > http://mysite.verizon.net/res79g4m/ Classic AMX Club of Portland - http://clubs.hemmings.com/classicamx --------previous message-------- Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2004 14:08:04 -0500 Subject: Shipping a tranny Anyone have any best easiest ways to ship a tranny advice???? I've weighed the S-42 automatic [135lbs] and measured it 37x22x22" boxed on a wood base and in a cardboard box. The UPS quote from here in Morgantown, 26505 to California came in at $120.50. I just want to make sure that is the easiest/best way to do it. If I can do it better and cheaper I will refund any difference to the guy buying the trans. I just wanted to ask around before sending it out. Thanks for any help Mark Price Morgantown, WV 26508 ___________________________________________________________
