need to ship heavy stuff, greyhoud best? anyone else?

im putting my s10 blazer back to stock come end of december. ive already got a guy in GA who wants to buy the drop kit already. except im in CA.

the spindles are kinda heavy, not too bad, ive shipped spindles before just usps. what worries me is the leaf springs, theyre pretty damn heavy and pretty long.

what would be the best way to ship all this stuff?

id probably ship the leafs with shocks since theyre both long objects. the spindles coils and blocks in one big box.

Shippers are kind of funny about this stuff, especially when it comes to heavy stuff. I think the magic number is about 75 Lbs. If you go over that, they really stick you. It is better/cheaper to ship two 40 Lb boxes than one 75 Lb box. They don't like to lift/move the heavy stuff.
