I was reading a Wanted thread for a 8 3/4 rear end. The question came up about how to ship. Oldmanmopar suggested strapping the rear end to a palate, diagonally, with the drums, axles, and backing plates removed and put those parts next to the housing. Strap it, wrap it, and truck ship it. That's brilliant. A standard palate is 48x40 or
62 1/2" diagonally. A rear end is about 52. Perfect.
Any one else have any shipping tricks they want to share?
