Title: interesting new bits available
Post by: binch on November 10, 2015, 10:19 AM
I see that BP is now carrying Old Man Emu springs and shocks ;)

And they are going to start carrying Dynaline rope shackles too ;D

I thought shipping gas charged shocks via air was not allowed as they are considered a hazardous good.

I thought so too, but a few years back when I got a set of Koni's from the UK (through Paddock I think) they air shipped them direct.

Interesting.  Before I bought my Konis, I asked Paddock Spares for a shipping quote and they clearly told me they could not air ship.

Just about anything can be shipped if the DG paper work is done correctly and the charges are made.      Shocks are hit and miss to ship by our standard air freight, but sending by Ground (or seacan) is less of an issue ;-)
