I have an 88 cradle, and a few interested in shipping prices, however I don't know the weights of the cradle.
Anyone experienced with shipping a cradle?

Never shipped one, but here is a stock 88 cradle with all the bolts and links removed. It weighs 50 lbs as pictured

Here is the factory service manual dimensions in mm:

Hey that's perfect. thanks!

I built a plywood box for mine and shipped it truck freight to Archie - no problems

Just trying to convert the width from 1055 mm and in my head I'm coming up around 42 1/4 inches. Why crate it? Can't you just clean it and tag it?

41.5" (google "convert xx mm to inches")

and, yes. Clean it and put a label on it (securely) and FedEx will take it no problem. We ship them that way all the time.

ok so: 42" x 42" at 70 lbs?

Fieroguru said 50 lbs. bare, but yeah.

I shipped one from Miami to Washington DC by fedex freight on a pallet and it was $ 278

I got the 88 stuff 5 years ago. I drove to LA and paid exactly what I'm selling it for.
