I sent a transfer and swb shaft I think I said it was about 25 kg

e-go is good, sent a few things with them, received a few things with them. Sometimes it can take a little while but it is cheap compared to everyone else.

If the person takes the mounts off, turns the case on a bit of an angle it should fit in a milk crate and the shaft should have a bit of room to get in there as well.

A SWB sierra rear is only 40cm long. Wouldn't stick out much.

20kg limit, and 140cm girth limit, so don't like your chances.

I've sent two with aus post. 19.5kg is under 20kg :roll:

The last one was 19.5 and that included the rags it was wrapped in and gear stick and packed in a box.

Here is a brand new transfer, with 6.5's and no oil or stick:

17.62kg

Yeah, but if you're that close a bi-wall box would just about tip you over the limit. Sometimes they'll let you get away with a bit over on size or weight, but not often both.

I just know how much I hate standing in line for half an hour only to be sent away because I was a few cm over the max dimension.

I reckon e-go would be cheaper anyway.
