And would that be the same person, who with help from someone we all know, fitted a NOS RL Bedford transfer-case, imported from England, to the QL as well and discovered at the Finke River, when he engaged four wheel drive for the first time, that the front wheels rotated the opposite way to the rear wheels? (The answer to that problem was to fit a re-coed Blitz transfer-case.)
