Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
Hi guys. I’m looking to get a 2speed axle shipped to Los Angeles From New Orleans . Its clean, empty of oil, and boxed ready to go and there’s a loading dock both ends. Send me a pm if you can help or know a transport company that’s reliable.
Dimensions are 74x 25.1/4 x17” and 260 lbs Thanks Dan. |

Re: Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
IF whoever you are purchasing OR is handling the shipping of the axle can strap it down to a pallet??? ANY motor freight company will be able to handle that with NO problem. Old Dominion, R&L Carriers, Estes, UPS Motor Freight, Fed Ex Motor Freight. Should not be any issue for them at all. Its been since 2004 but Fed Ex Freight got a 32 V8 engine from So Cal to me here in No Fla in 3 days, no problems....it was bolted to a pallet!!!!
JUST Make damn sure they tape off the drive shaft end and axle ends really really good for protection AS the terminal fork lift drivers will beat the ever lovin' ends IF you don't!!! |

Re: Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
Look for a freight forwarder in your area. he can make a connection with various freight companies (or a independent operator) to get your package to its destination.

Re: Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
Only needs to get to LA but its probably too big/heavy for the gray dog express.

Re: Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
Is trulyvintage still doing runs? He is running around the country all the time. He might be taking a load that way. Worth a try anyways. Great guy.
Call or text Jim @ 260-804-6695 Up coming schedule from his site. I'd call though, sure he can stuff an axle in if they are going that way. https://www.trulyvintagetrailers.cit...sport-now.html . Last edited by Tinker; 07-28-2021 at 11:22 PM. |

Re: Axle shipped from New Orleans to Los Angeles
Thanks everyone. It looks like this is sorted. A big thanks to a fordbarner whom I shall not name unless he’s ok if I do.
