When I shipped mine, as noted I used a good cardboard box, cut a piece of plywood to fit 
the bottom then used scraps of wood and cardboard inside to fill up voids and reinforce 
the sides.  It worked well, tranny arrived safe and sound.

One shop I know ships lots of Toyota 4WD transmissions and transfer cases and they use 
those Action Packer type plastic storage boxes.  Just get one large enough to hold the 
unit then drop it in with some padding and tape it up.
