I can't exactly remember, but it was August 2011 approximately. I think our dollar was doing ok against the USD at the time.
Then at the time they wanted $240 each for the special Input shafts. Plus there would also be the freight costs added as well. At todays exchange it would be closer to $8000 AUD + freight :shock:

Its big money to cough up but looking at this there is profit to be made simply as you'd completely corner the market.


Anyways, my castings have been blasted and I prep'd and painted them today.

Come up great! So now a week or 2 I will have bushes and off to the trans guys for assembly.
