Yeah we have CnC lathes it's not the back woods, last time I looked we were sending Holden Monaros to the states and GM rebadged them as GTOs and don't forget this is where ARB lockers come from, and Mal would have one, he would turn up the billets on this but I'm not sure what he hobs the gears on, I know they are straight cut, he would be sending them out to get hardened. I'm not sure Mal is into becoming a supa wealthy if he was you blokes would be fitting Maxi lockers not ARBs because him and Jack Mac were making them first. I guess he is happy living on the Goldcoast making a comfortable living doing someting he loves with no stress. Remember to you guys are paying heaps more for this stuff as well. Even so he won't sell many here either. I think we do different stuff to you guys, sure there are guys that rock hop and we have the normal 4x4 comps etc but most people that actually take a car of road here use them to get to a destination like the Cape, the Gulf, Kimberlys etc, there are epic adventures like the Canning stock route where you may need to get fuel dropped in a long the route, infact a couple of ill prepared clowns and their dog died a few weeks back on the Canning when there truck stopped and no one came a long for a couple of weeks to save them Eperb or a sat phone, maybe a HF set is the only contact in the outback if your in trouble. So while the tracks are rough and remote a lot well most of Oz is pretty flat. So a super low gear isn't that important, we also do a lot of beach driving, some beaches are gazetted as highways and have speed signs,cops even book you for speeding. Fraszer island, Morten island and the Great sandy national park are common 4x4 destinations around here. Seldom need low range except some times on track off the beach a bit or if towing boats of campers up the beach. There is a US guy on Disco web that has done the trip to the cape, can't remmeber his name though. There are still places here that us white men have never tread even with 4x4s.
