Very interesting. It's not all that different then today's production methods having a number of subcontracted out companies making the various components and Ford doing all the final assembly. I just love that Ford made very little of the carrier parts yet FMCO is stamped on almost eveything.
As for the doors.... http://images.ourontario.ca/waterloo/30174/data?n=102

The "sunshine co" part is interesting especially after Jordan's post. I have a spare lower suspension arm that has sunshine cast in raised letters, it's an LP part but the link with Australia makes sense, they must have cast suspension units in Australia as well as any other involvement. I always thought it an odd thing to have cast into a part on a military vehicle!!
