Is it in the listing of an item whether or not it will need to ship via freight? It's likely it's there and I'm just missing it. I'm asking more specifically for the fiberglass long running boards. I wasn't really going to be going for new running boards but this promo has me seriously considering it.

Yeah on the site all freight items will have a freight explanation in red on the screen with the item's details, also during checkout it will let you know you have freight items in your cart

Running boards wouldn't be freight though, mostly bed panels, hoods, fenders, doors, windshields and a few others I probably can't think of

Well there you go BJ, now you need to go into the seat restoration business. I will let you practice on my seat and I won't even charge you.

I am just getting ready to order a new front bumper for my 54 F250. Been comparing LMC and MidFifty. Midfifty does not show this as a freight item is that correct? Is Midfifty's triple plated chrome what would be considered a show quality bumper, comparable to LMC's premium chrome bumper? Looks like Midfifty's come with brackets but doesn't say if the brackets are chrome. The shipping special rate may have just helped me make up my mind.

The ones we sell most likely come from the same place LMC gets them from, but that is just a guess. I would imagine they are the same quality.

The brackets are chrome, plus you get the bumper, the brackets and hardware for one price

And correct there would be no freight

What about small items that would fit in a Priority Mail small flat rate box? Thinking about ordering a 2 terminal starter switch (52-56), but the flat rate shipping cost as much as the part.

If you can't think of anything else you would want to get to take advantage of it , just give us a call when you order we can do something about it

OK, thanks. My truck is a 48 f1, and I was wanting to use the newer style 2 contact ignition switch rather than the original grounding type, to simplify my wiring. Most of the parts you carry are for the newer f100 series trucks.
