alright, and for shipping. How would that all work? I think if I read right that I would need a forklift or something, and I kinda don't have one of those...

ship it to a auto shop or a machine shop that has a fork lift and can store it. bets bet would be to get it delivers to the place where its going to be swapped. i was able to ship it to my buddy who works at a machine shop and stored it there.
