Ship your converter for $13.95
Just a heads up:
The good 'ol USPS has a box with a Priority Mail flat-rate of $13.95 that you can ship up to 70 lbs anywhere, as long as it fits in the box. The box measures 12" x 12" x 6". It is perfect for shipping out a torque converter because the dimensions are just right. I just protected the hub, added a little padding and off she goes this morning. Also, the USPS hand sorts all Priority Mail so the chances of your shipment being roundhouse kicked a la Chuck Norris style are probably less than if you went with UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc. I have a 9" non-lock Art Carr stall converter that I had to ship off. As far as converters go, that one is a lightweight, weighing in at just over 27lbs. At that weight, it would have been $57 to ship. I could only imagine how much a 12" lock-up would cost.

Stickified!
I believe a lockup 12" should weight about 40 lbs.

Sadly, this may no longer be valid. The "large" box from the postal service is now only 12" x 12" x 5.5". It used to be 12" x 12" x 8". It will not fit an entire stock size converter anymore due to not having enough depth in the box.
