Advert states 'doesn't post to Australia' ??

Made one a few years ago from an old socket. Isuzu C240 powered Series 3 (https://www.aulro.com/afvb/other-powered-series-land-rovers/151959-isuzu-c240-powered-series-3-a-post1732945.html#post1732945)
Cut it in half & lengthened it a while ago so it could be used with the transfer box in place.

One thing to watch for is 'pattern' nuts, the slots are not evenly machined so the tool doesn't quite fit ! Original ones are OK.

Hi Colin.
Saw a link on how to make one from old socket.
Then saw this on UK Or site.
Good reviews.
Rang and spoke to Kevin. Nuts supplied are original type, he mentioned aftermarket nuts and slots not matching.
Does post to Australia.
Didn't use eBay, but needed PayPal account. Bit cheaper than eBay price.

Tool, nut and postage. Total $62, cheap if you ask me.
