    Going to order some JBA control arms and the shipping is either $200 through USPS or $100 through DHL. My question is does anyone know how much other fees DHL will charge and how much ( brokerage etc) . Don't need exact numbers just ballpark.

    You could also have the arms shipped to the nearest border crossing to you and go pick them up yourself. There are lots of border shipping places now that offer this service. I know on my arms it would of been cheaper to ship to the border and historically that’s what I’ve done on most US shipped parts.

    Same here. I'm about 1/2 hour from the boarder, and I use a UPS store. They charge $5 to hold your product.

    What ever you do avoid UPS. Their fees are much higher. I’ve never used DHL to ship to Canada, but USPS is pretty good and arrives via Canada Post.

    Did you get your JBAs? How much did DHL charge? Going to order JBAs in a couple of months.

    KenLyns I went a different route cause the tire and rim combo I was running would not work with the JBA UCA.

    In the spirit of reviving old threads! UPS just left my door with my JBA UCAs, they wanted an extra $210 for customs on top of the $35 I spent for shipping. Not happening, I’ll find another way!
