I need to ship large items, say like a straight axle and a couple doors, how would I get those shipped? You just show up with the stuff at the ups store or what? :hammerhead:

put it on a pallet and cardboard, then strap it to them. and have them wrap them with their shrink wrap stuff.

just depends on weight and all sorts of things, depends on residental or buisness locations on the drop off ect...

shipping on something as heavy as a front axle would be at least $100 I would think.  Shipping on a 3rd member from Marlin is $60

yea but i'd assume it's only that cheap because they own a business and ship daily. residential's much more expensive.... definently shop around!
