I wouldn't label it as dangerous i'd just put it as a suspension arm.... it's not like its volatile and will blow a plane out of the sky, isnt going to go bang with no load at full extension in a box....

bloodey expensive though i sent the lower intake mani and some cam covers from a nissan cima over and it was around 80 bucks and was 6kg total.

I'd buy yourself a ticket to Aussie. Then insert the shock up ones arse and smuggle it into Australia.

It will be a easier insertion if it's a Honda shock .......

Having a dispute with NZ Post on this now. Turns out they should be able to take it.

don't worry bout it....you'll rebound sooner or latter. To be fair, late parcels cost more to load on the trucks, so its cheaper if you can get your parcel to them pre load.

I once tried to send an After Shock to Japan.

Turned out they needed to have an earthquake before they will accept After Shocks.

Turns out NZPost have no idea what they are doing. :facepalm:

After a long argument with them they are starting to realize they are wrong on air freighting shocks.
