GST plus customs duties.
I was going to purchase an ARB locker from Just Diff's until I was warned about the >$1000 catch, I made a few calls & sure enough it was going to cost ~20% extra once the order hit our shores!
Less than $1000 & it's not looked at, go figure.

When ordering lifts from the USA, don't forget to tell them it is for RHD.

Buying panhards locally to suit our cars eats up the price difference real fast.

Keep in mind its purchase price PLUS freight. Which is bloody ridiculous if you ask me.

I don't know if those prices are current nor have I dealt with them.
Just Diff's ARB locker was about the same price ~6 mths ago, then a price rise put it just over $900 + post = >$1000.

Note the USPS freight price.
