    alright i found someone that wants to buy my stock front bumper. so i went to UPS and they told me it would cost 220 bucks to ship. fedex said 240. my question is how can i ship this item? it only weighs 12 pounds. i never would of thought it would cost that much to ship. not to mention my relentless bumper only cost 125 to ship and that thing weighs 100 pounds and was shipped across the country. does anyone out there know a good way to ship i could check out?

    Probably fastenal. Isn't that what relentless uses? Probably why it was less. Even though it weighs much less size still comes into factor. I paid a lot using UPS to ship something once since it was a little larger and awkwardly sized.

    Wow. Never knew Greyhound ships. I ship via USPS. I've never had anything go missing and their prices are competitive.

    LOL yeah I don't know if they have maximum dimensions they can handle. It's never been a problem, but then I've never shipped a bumper.
