Fed Ex ground has a limit of 150 pounds. A C900 manual transmission on a small (custom built) pallet weighs about 145. I've shipped a couple back and froth to my rebuilder (CMyles) in Colorado. You just want to be sure it is empty and clean so that it does not leak anything nasty in transit. In sending my unit out, I just opened all of the faceplates and gunked it, let it dry and then sealed it up. Held it down with nylon straps. Make the pallet with accessible grips so that it is really easy on the Fed EX guy - you don't want them dropping it or being in any way pissed off at having to deal with it.
T hink it cost me $125-150 to ship each way, IIRC.
