Personally I would never ship a motor or trans except with freight companies who do it as their main business. UPS/FedEx don't do it well or often enough to do it well.

I like UPS more than anyone. UPS and FEDEX both DO Freight as well so It's not a big deal. I guess it really comes down to your area. When I get UPS in my area they find my house. DHL leaves stuff at the Post Office and FedEx delivers it down the street.

Call UPS Every Day to see why it hasn't been sent out yet.
the local one that has the trans if you can

Over the past few years they've all been going down hill it seems. I've had equal amount of bad luck with them all.

ups is alright here unless they get a new driver they never can find our business, no street address to it.. they had a new guy deliver a $1k+ fishing tool we use to fish stuff out or oil wells..he said he left it in our shop but it was never dropped off.
