Since Mark's Adapters are the Aussie dealer for Advance Adapters, I rang them and wanted to order my gear throught them but they told me to get it from the States directly...
So after talking to the folks at Advance Adapters,
I bought mine from Rusty's Offroad in Alabama,
who at the time were the cheapest.

And organised my own freight through SCI
http://www.sciaustpl.com.au/
That was back in the days when the dollar was at 50cents, so don't ask me about cost -- it's too painful!!!

I have been looking at this recently.
Cheezy did a 1 off import . . . all were pre-ordered and are now off the shelves. He was quoting a cost of around A$4k landed but warned that Australian businesses tended to rank fairly low on AA's priority list and the wait was often 8+ weeks.
I have started looking at the private import option for a number of parts on my TJ. Just be warned that there are a heap of hidden fees and that most US vendors won't accept an Aussie credit card because they are not protected - something to do with fraud and credit jurisdictions.
Based on my enquiries, I would add somewhere near 20-25% of the price to cover the GST, duty, customs fees, etc and that's after you've pulled up your pants from being raped with the shipping charges.

I'm not very good looking, so I guess I better be useful . . .
