I inquired about shipping some 6:4.1 reduction gears to aus I'm not sure what shipping method to use I' . Thinking the Secound,which one have u guys picked before??
and then when they finally get here getting 2stroker machanic son to fit them,
\/here is the email \/
Hi Ken -UPS wants $336.00 just for the shipping. Express Mail International wouldbe about $148.25. Both levels of service provide insurance and tracking.We can also ship via Priority Mail however there is NO tracking available.That would be $122.00. If you order online please put your preferredshipping method in the comments section of the online ordering form alongwith this quote.Thanks,Linda

I just received my set, using the express mail option. A bit slow coming out of the states and dropped off the radar for a few days but came through ok.
FWIW I put in a order for transfer case parts with Low Range at the same time and they were about 7 days quicker getting here.

Just get some through lowrange? They used to do a $65 shipping for gears only
I just paid $156us in shipping for gears, spartanlocker, 2shaft spacers, and other various light parts (24lbs total)

The 6.4 and 6.5 are not going to be much different

How long all up from trail tough roughly I rang them and made sure they had them in stock, which they did. Shipped on the 4th October and arrived on the 11th October. I'm tossing up on cradle.... Probably the new Trailtough version but do like the simplicity of the Spidertrax mounts. At present I'm just trying to get finished and on the road.
