Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'cast iron parts for motor vehicle drive-axles' and provide material test reports confirming iron content
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying with wheels; these are axle-specific, not under 8708.70
• For aftermarket parts, maintain records showing compatibility with US-market vehicles to support 'other vehicles' classification
