Anyone got any tips on economic freight postage from the US of A?

With that sort of dimension you won't be able to go through USPS (United States Postal Service - like AusPost) which is usually the cheapest option in my experience.
International courier is probably the only real option (unless someone else knows other ways apart from having someone bring it back for you) - and yes prepare to be stung with freight charges, then tax and duty if you are unlucky.
Just think of the nice bill I was greeted with after bringing in 4 wheel disc brake set up including dropped spindles, plus two running boards - I think it cost me more for freight/taxes etc than it did to buy the gear! D'OH😠
