Not a new module, a new feature for an old one.
I just completed a new version of the FedEx Advanced for Merchant 5.x module which adds LTL as a shipping method. It is handled in much the same way as the freight methods that were already in the module. I.e. a single order's shipping can be split between regular FedEx methods and LTL and the shipping option will be displayed to the customer showing how much they are paying for each (and the total shipping). Options associated with the LTL method include being able to specify the weight cutoff over which a package will be restricted to LTL shipping (the FedEx api will actually return LTL shipping quotes for packages of only a few pounds!), the freight class of the package, and the FedEx LTL account number (FedEx maintains a separate account number for LTL shipping...it's optional for the module to be able to calculate LTL shipping). And as with other shipping methods these otions can be configured individually for products configured to ship in a separate package.
In accordance with the options offered by the FedEx LTL api the module can now prompt the customer to select which of the LTL options they need (e.g. "Lift gate required").
In addition, this new version also adds a tab to the order details (under >Order Processing in Merchant admin) which displays the shipping cost alloted to various methods (if there was more than one they are listed separately) as well as which options the customer selected. This same feature has also bee added to the UPS Custom Integration for Merchant 5.x
