Use of This Website

Shopping at 4x4 Direct is at your own risk – and your own reward. Just don’t blame us if your partner isn’t thrilled about the number of parcels arriving. Our job is to supply tough, reliable gear at great prices; your job is to practice self-control.

Stock Availability

Our system shows total stock across all five branches. This means:

  • An item may need to be transferred between stores before dispatch, which can cause a short delay.

  • If you need something urgently (like two days before a trip), check with your branch first to confirm availability.

  • “In stock” does not guarantee stock at your nearest branch. Always confirm before collecting.


Payment Options

We accept:

  • Credit Cards

  • EFT / Direct Deposits

  • Cash in-store


Returns & Refunds

We stand behind our gear – if it’s faulty, we’ll sort it out.

  • Faulty items: Refund or exchange, and we cover return shipping.

  • Change of mind: Return shipping at your cost + 30% handling fee (after 14 days).

  • Must be unused, in original packaging, sealed.

  • No refunds on items that are opened, used, incomplete, or damaged.

  • Warranty claims require your original invoice.

Warranty:

  • Within 7 days: replacement (if packaging and all parts are intact).

  • After 7 days: product will be inspected; valid claims will be replaced or refunded.

  • Discontinued products: refunded in full.

  • Warranty covers normal use only. (If you roll your bakkie and the snorkel cracks – that’s on you.)

  • Warranty covers the product only, not fitment costs.


Product Images

  • Pictures are for illustration purposes.

  • Products may differ slightly from images.

  • Vehicles shown in product photos (like snorkels or LED bars) are not included – sorry.


Fitting Responsibility

We supply the product – fitment is your responsibility.
We recommend using a professional, registered fitment centre for all installations.


Special Offers & Orders

  • Specials apply to online orders only. Phone and email orders don’t qualify.

  • Our newsletter subscribers get exclusive monthly deals – subscribe or miss out.

  • We cannot “hold” stock without payment. First come, first served.


Communication

  • We aim to respond to queries within 12 hours during business days.

  • At peak times, it may take up to 48 hours. If you haven’t heard from us, your query may not have reached us – please resend.


Final Word

At 4x4 Direct, every product is tested tough. We avoid comebacks because we only sell gear that can take a beating. When you buy from us, you’re buying with confidence – backed by the Badger Brand seal: “So Taai soos ’n Ratel”.

4x4 Direct – as tough as a Honey Badger.
