    Wasn't sure where to ask this, but has anyone tried to ship step bars? I have a sale pending but ups wanted to charge me $200 for shipping after they told me $50 and USPS said that the box would have been too large. Just trying to get the steps from Houston to El Paso. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks! :D

    Yes, it's very expensive as anything over 60" long is considered oversized.

    Just go to the website and enter the dim's and pick a far away zip Cordero get the worst case scenario rate

    Yeah I went to USPS today and they said anything with a length and girth which added up to over 108" was too big to ship.

    I bought mine from a TW member in another state. He shipped to me via Fastenal. It was very reasonable and 2nd day delivery.
