Anyone near leeds/Bradford area soon?

Needing a RangeRover transfer box sent to be reconditioned.

Was pricing pallet deliverys and haven't spoke to the crowd yet but pretty sure I'd have to organize delivery to them and back to myself again.

Remembered about this thread so thought I'd ask to see if one of the delivery trips could be made a little cheaper.

Not sure of the weight as I haven't got it out yet, but it will be pretty heavy so van would be ideal.

If I've room, I can take that over for you in about 5 weeks time...

The last pallet I sent to England was £67 IIRC

Would like it done before them if possible, tho I do need to remove it first :p

Thanks for the offer

Do you remember the company that delivered the pallet? Cheapest I got with a quick online search was £89 and I think if I carried on there'd be vat added too.

Would only need a half sized pallet too.

@Laundrymike thanks for the offer of help.

Ended up not sending the transfer box away after chatting to the business over there. Ended up buying some bits and doing the job myself.

Thanks very much tho

Send it with Parcelforce "large parcel" option. I got a front panel about those dimensions shipped that way.

Likewise:cool:

I'll be heading over to England either Friday 8th or Friday 15th and will be heading from Scotland to Birmingham, across to North Yorkshire and then back via Scotch Corner, Penrith Carlisle, Dumfries, etc. Will be in a large van and have some room left

@Daviddunlop83 a friend of mine own`s Pro-performance Metal in Northampton and he has really looked after me on the price but for him to ship it over its working out at £120. I will try a few local companies and see what they come up with.

It's the length of it making it hard to ship. A LWB transit is only 3m inside the back.

Just found an old email from the metal store. We ordered this from England as they didn't have all parts in stock here and we needed it urgently.

They shipped the below for £38 somehow and IIRC the smaller fittings came on a separate lorry to the long tube lol.
