Default Shipping parts from the US?

G'day,

I want to bring an early F250 dana 60 diff and 4 wheels in from the states, local prices are just mental. Has anyone shipped this sort of thing before? Who did you use and what sort of cost was involved? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

If you pick up the magazine 'Just Parts' from your local news agent, you will find some small ads for companies having container shipment from US to Aus. Some of these offer to ship 'anything' you have bought of cars and parts.
Have a look there

I've moved a rear axle, suspension,crossmebers etc from LA last month.

Titan transport in Carson california is the crowd I used.

Around a thousand bucks including customs fees and customs insisting on washing all the parts at my cost.
