    If you use usps they will transfer it to canada post when it crosses the border. Still have to pay brokerage and taxes but It is usually way less tge ups or fedex.

    It will be handed over to Canada Post at the border. You can continue tracking the package on Canada Post website.

    I never ever use UPS for shipments from the states as I got screwed on brokerage fees every time. Sometimes even 50% of the cost of the product itself.

    Or what Bulhas suggest, although myself I just don't shop at a retailer that does not ship USPS to Canada or is not willing to ship USPS on my request.

    I admit, I don't have much experience with shipping automotive parts. The biggest thing I got from US via USPS was my roll up tonneau cover. :eek:

    But USPS worked very well for me for that and everything else over the years. Their brokerage fees are reasonable unlike UPS.

    usps has always been about 15% cheaper on average the ups or fedex.

    They're the brand new, soon to be released TC 2" LT arms, with integrated uniballs in the lower arm for increased ground clearance.....


    Lets just say that Jamie has THE first kit in Canada, and one of the first kits out there...
