My S60 arrived today and I'm happier than a kid in a candy store. A huge thank you to Cass for his help and advice. Considering I'm on the other side of the planet this was one of the easiest purchases I have made and his service is second to none, 4 weeks from ordering to delivery here in Australia!!!!!! Can't wait to hook it up and install the disc brake kit, go for a run, and who cares if its overkill for my SB stroker combination.

Hi Zapp, Macka and i picked it up from UPS in Brisbane this afternoon. I landed mine about a month ago and macka fell in love with it...and ordered one. lol.

$1200 US for air freight and about $800 for gst and fees. All up around $ 5000.

Looks Nice. Don't worry about overkill. Overkill doesn't land you on the tow truck for the ride home lol.

Zapp, I ordered a strange 60 3.73 gears, 35 spline trutrac centre, billet yoke and 35 spline s/st axles. When i ordered mine our dollar was about 90 percent. The diff cost me around $5000 less brakes. I already had xf falcon disc brakes modified to suit a 8 3/4, so they fit straight on the dana. Macka bought his with brakes from Cass, so he will chime in on the price. rob.

Thanks Guys, Yeah I ordered mine a wekk or so back, 3.54 gears detroit locker 35 spline pinion snubber etc. Just trying to save a bit on freight if I can but seems $1200 is about the best it gets, must be the length as I air freighted my engine and trans for under $3K and there was 500kg and 2 pallots. Havent tried UPS as they are usually the most expensive. DB Schenker moved my last lot of stuff. I need to get a decent shipper that looks after the little guy as Ive got full Wilwood Brake kit, Hotchkis suspension and Flaming river box and column I need to ship in the next week or so.

Are you guys going to go down to Sydney for MOPAR RUMBLE I fly out tomorrow nigh cant wait

Yeah Cass is a good guy. I ordered some axles from him earlier this year and got them in about a week. Even spoke to him on the phone and he answered all my questions and was friendly as could be.
