Default chalk and cheese!

There are some parts that are interchangeable, but the problem is that English use BSF and BSW threads while Aussie used UNF and UNC. While many parts do fit, the associated threads need to be checked!

for example: We often use english spring rods (and whitworth nuts) simply because they are available.

Incidentally, I noticed that the only High Tensile bolts specified in the Aussie parts book are the mounting bolts for the rear bogie bracket-to-hull.
