Suggestions for shipping a slider frame?

[loopfuzz]

Been trying to figure out the most cost effective method of shipping a RV-7 slider frame (Part# WD-640) from South Carolina to Portland, OR.

FedEx, UPS and DHL won't take it cause it's to big. (even though it practically weighs nothing). And all the other freight shipment companies want way to much money.

If I can't get it shipped for under around $150, it makes more since for me to just buy it from vans brand new at around $320.

Any ideas? (shy of chopping it up and welding it back together on the other end?)

Check with Partain Transport, sometimes they may have room on the return trip.
