Everything on that list from TT.
USPS wouldn't let me use it because the ounces was over 5 digits or sonething. Which left me with expensive fedex :/

Ask TT to have another look at the quote...They may be able to trim it a tad if they want your business ..It would be still cheaper to send USPS if they split into 2 packages...
Alternatively shoot Wheeling Cycle Supply an email with your list and see if they can do better... :////  https://www.wheeling...00-specials/145

To be more precise, I am trying to order:

Bigger front disk and caliper bracket. - https://www.thumpert...C-p4605986.html
Steel front brake cable - https://www.thumpert...s-p4187599.html
Engine covers - https://www.thumpert...2006766599.html
Radiator cover -https://www.thumpert...2006766390.html
MCCT -  https://www.thumpert...2006766344.html
Frame guard to hide surface rust – https://www.thumpert...0-p4180382.html
Front fender - https://www.thumpert...7-p4119617.html

When I press "Calculate Shipping" I put in my details then press "calculate" with USPS checked.
I get back this error "* USPS The ounces field must be less than 5 digits"

When I check FedEx and "Calculate" I get these two options:

FedEx International Economy -- $708.21
FedEx International Priority -- $720.45

Went to order all the TT parts tonight. Only options for postage was $700+.

Please tell me there are other options :/ That's more then the pieces are worth.

It's not right, just a screwy thing with the automation.. Call them on Monday, email or use the contact form.  Seen this many times before with international orders, It's just the way the automated system adds up the shipping costs on those parts.

Seems to be between 140-170 but I may just have to pay the 700 and they refund some because they haven't figured out what's going on yet :/

No Way.....Tell them that they will have to "Sharpen their Pencil" on shipping if they want your business....I reckon $140 should be tops for that amount of stuff.....
If you accept their total , get them to send you a Paypal invoice.......
