Hi everyone,
I'm interested in purchasing an engine from someone in Texas and we're trying to find the least expensive way to ship it. I've heard a recommendation of ForwardAir, but they want $362 to ship it (which seems very high.) Does anyone have any recommendations? In the meantime I'll be searching the old posts, but I imagine prices change over time. Thanks! |

most freight companies are a rip off now, unless you can get the "discounted rate". why don't you see if you can ship it via a friends company frt line. I know I get %60 off of the rates they quoted you.
If the engine's near Dallas-Ft Worth, I'll ship it for you. I'd guess about $150. |
