Default Re: Shipping Parts

I ship a lot of Big Block Ford "hard parts" all Cobra Jet Heads are rolled in cardboard nothing more nothing less. Make caps for the ends and when they are tossed around will serve as the initial point of contact and distribute the load. Never had an issue yet. Used to make aluminum sides insulation lined crates etc waste of money and energy. The key is tight tight tight. Hard parts shift in boxes. I cut them down if needed for some items. Also agree with Fedex and was with UPS for 10 yrs prior. Not a big operation but I do about 600 per month in freight cost.
