From memory, they are mounted on a Suzuki chassis, but I forget which model. I believe that the chassis are unmodified in length, & in fact run the full stock Suzuki drivetrain.
The other side-shot of the red one shows that the body is mounted high, but the chassis is not all that high, so the high stepin' look is more of an illusion than the result of a seriously jacked up suspension, which I think is also stock.

I don't think those are the stock ute wheels mate

hi man the wheels are stock suzuki 4x4 sunrasiers the ute body is standed motor is 1200 4 speed box the rest is suzuki 4x4 chassis & runnimg gear.

little update on the red one. The former owner of Steve's spares in Queanbeyan (old datsun wrecker) bought it and spent quite a bit of time fixing it up, he extended the wheelbase a bit, fixed the steering etc. He will have it for sale soon. I had a little chat to him today and a look over the ute, definately a head turner!

itd be heaps of fun to go mud racin in that if it had a ca18det in it
