Trans axle Options

What company might be the best for shipping a trans axle, as far as price goes?

Richard,
You do your way, I do mine. I have people who contact me for work and I instruct them how to ship. This way is easiest for me and cheapest for them. Based on the research that I did to save people $$, and on my reputation, people choose to commission me for rebuilds. My ability to save them on the shipping through my hard work in research and development of shipping techniques allows me to be competitive via low cost/low hassle. I see no need for me to publish more than I already have (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Your way takes more work, and far more effort on the part of your customers than mine. Mine requires no fabrication of anything. Its so simple that I have already said more than enough for you to copy should you wish.

I showed you enough of my secrets last time you visited my shop (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I initially researched and used Greyhound. It was a necessary evil, things got broken, lost, and the people who work there were hell to deal with. The terminals were often located in the crappiest parts of town and populated with some shady characters so picking up and dropping off was often unpleasant to say the least. It was so bad that I went an hour out of my way to avoid Harrisburg.

Partwerks,
UPS or FedEx, either one is fine. I can always return it FedEx or UPS, but UPS tends to be more. It is just a cost versus effort equation. If it is too much effort to go to FedEx then UPS makes more sense. Either will end up at my door. The nearest Greyhound station is an hour away and not open when I can go get anything so it is not possible for me to use it.
