OK all you parts dealers our there I have a question, I know what's new (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
When it comes to shipping big items what's the best way to do it? In this case it would be a tail shift trans also 5 mahle rims. I have a pallet for the trans, so would you just strap in down, should I make a box cover for it? how do you do it? Thanks! |

I used forward air to ship a full front & rear suspension from LA to WI. I got a pallet at Home Depot and used the above mentioned stretch wrap. No problems.
TAKE CASH with you to Forward Air. They don't take check or plastic. |
