How do you all ship parts from Canada to the US?And also from the US to Canada? I know it doesn't sound like a big deal , but I'm just wondering. I've talked to Fastenal and they won't mess with it due to Customs. Maybe We need a "Mule" to carry our parts across the border. Thnx Kev

I've shipped many things to our northern friends, and had a few things come to me via USPS. You fill out a customs document at the post office, not a big deal. But on heavy things requiring truck freight it most likely gets spendy in a short order.

"International" Freight is very easy, I get bits from all over the world and have never had a problem, UK, Europe, USA etc.

Put 'Classic Car parts" on the customs label and that will cover 99% of anything related to the Jeep.

Unsure of your tax but there, here if the purchase is under $400 NZD inc freight then there is no sales tax.

So the idea is small packages often rather than trying to buy heaps at once.

I imported my Jeep body direct from the Philippines, soft top from the USA, all too easy.

US to Europe or Canada is not complicated at all. Shipping to South America can be complicated.
