Default Anyone shipped a ds before?
Any guess on how much it would be to ship one to PA? Never shipped anything oblong like a driveshaft before, thanks.

FedEx is always cheaper for me. You can also do USPS, but a drive shaft might not be cheaper through them. you might not need a box, just bubble wrap it and tape it up real good.

UPS.com will give you the price you just need the weight, length height and width.

thats the way to do it. everyone thinks things need to fit in a box, u can ship anything, just wrap it in brown paper, tape it up and its good to go
