Subject:Re: Anyone shipped an auto trans?

Hi there,

I've shipped several transmissions, but never an auto.
 Multiple Golf trannies, as well as 4-speed Vanagon.
The weight was around 90 pounds and I shipped them via
UPS for $40 each.  HOWEVER, the auto tranny is one
heavy beast.  I can pick up a 4-speed or even a syncro
tranny to move them around.  I can't lift an auto
tranny.  So the weight may be prohibitive.  As I know
UPS has a maximum weight limit they will transport -
around 100 pounds or so.

I have an auto tranny in Denver, CO if you are
interested in driving out, that would be one long
drive though...
