I want to see how much a courrier is going to cost, and it asks for the weight?

It costs around £20 for four 31" mud tyres if that helps.

I was going to say it costs £49 to send a fuel pump to North America, is that any help?

the tailgate is to big for a normal courier and it will need to be put on a small pallet due to the weight aswell.I've already looked into it as i was going to send a tailgate off but it wasn't worth paying the courier on.
I think the spare wheel carrier was about 13-15kg and the courier took that ok.
I use www.interparcel.com for just about all the parts i send off.You will need the weight and exact sizes once wrapped up tho.I normally add on a kg or 2 just to cover myself as i weigh stuff on bathroom scales.

Hey Stormforce.....

Have you tried using that http://www.shiply.com/ website......

They seem to take most things regardless of thier size or weight. Do you know off the top of your head what the weight would be on a tailgate then?

I think it was just over the 35kg last time i weighed it and as its over the legal health and safety weight limit theres not many couriers that i know of that would take it.Even a door i would have to put on a pallet due to size and weight.
I can get away with things being just over 25kg as the couriers will use a trolley to move it

I will take a gander at the website and see what the prices are like.

only UPS, DHL and DPD won't take irregular size and weight...

TNT & Tuffnells do and Nightfreight even have an "IDW" (irregular dimension and weight) service
