to big and heavy for ups. freight prices will vary on the carrier and location of pick up and drop off point. some freight places won't pick up or drop off if there is no loading dock or forklift at both locations. some won't deliver to residential places. some require it to be mounted on a pallet. I have shipped a couple of axels and engines. I used consolidated freight. they are not always the cheapest, but are easy to work with. They have website, but the info is NOT accurate. best to call around.
your right. I don't understand the jeep thing!
