Robert, I have my doubts about US supply to Ford SA and NZ...they were subsdiaries of Ford of Canada and logically they received Canadian Fords as they did post-war. Plus English of course! GM SA did however receive a mix of US and Canadian cars and trucks plus Opels. This requires further research on my part! The M-H 6 x 6 judging by previous threads used Thornton rear bogies with the Thornton rear transfer case + Timken axles. Now we know they used the Ford axle in the front. The Chevrolet 6 x 4 chassis ex-French order that ended up in the UK had Chevrolet front axles with Thornton rear bogie with Thornton case + Timken axles.
