Default ARB aussie made?

so all ARB and OME off-road products are made in Australia? I thought they were made in washington state, but it looks like that is only the main import office for north/south america. Kind of disappointed, I like ARB but also like buying made in America.

nothing, I've sure it's got to be tough to handle outback conditions. I'd just rather buy American in this bad economy to support American jobs. Also, I can't help but wonder how much of the price of a heavy bull bar is due to having to ship it half way around the world.
