4WDSUPACENTRE

[Jamair]

I have found a few references to this shop in the forums, but has any actually BOUGHT something from them, and can share whether they are fair dinkum or is it all cheap junk?

[Mr Moe]

I bit the bullet and just went for it after finding them... same boat as you, not much info besides what they have as customer reviews, which you can't really trust when they are on their site and free for them to edit what is shown...

So far i have only half of my order though... went for the 9" LED spots after stumbling across some users on a Ute post on Facebook. For the price it was worth a shot in my opinion, also got a wiring harness from them mainly due to the attachment they offer so i don't have to tap into the factory loom cos I'm slack... haha

Only down side so far i have found... their postage times seem to be in blocks, as in you buy the product and they only post their items once a month. The listing usually states it, like for mine the wiring loom was for Mid July delivery and the lights are for Mid August... Both instances they were listed as free postage as part of a deal they had going too, so waiting game till i can let you know how good they are...

If i could go to their store i would to see their products... But I'm in SA where it aint any good for 4WD stores like interstate, where most seem to operate and give good deals...

Probably doesn't help you much... but thought I'd give you something at least for now... Can give you another update once i finally get my lights and have them installed to see what they are like as a product if you can wait a few weeks...

I Have double swag. The swag came with a dodgy zip but they replaced it no problems, a courier came to pick it up so it wasn't too.much hassle.

Lights are good, can't complain for the price really.

Air compressor has been good with no problems too.

Worth a shot if you can wait for the next shipment

Thanks Mr Moe & Mattstopel; appreciate your responses.

Compressor works really well.
Awnings are good, but maintenances required.
Strip lights are good.
Like most say, for the price, it's worth it most times.

I have the air compressor, the 9inch LED, BBQ plate, 22 inch light bar, wiring harness and a few others bits and pieces from them.

bought the 2 x 2.5 awning, recovery kit as a gift for my bro

no issues, except the recall on the snatch strap

[Glenn k]

I bought a double swag from them, good quality for the price I reckon, I ordered in May, it was there in June like it was suppose to. $200 well spent I think.

[john253a]

I have there recovery kit,
All there gear is tested in Aust.
Not all is tested how how many like but all there tests are on there website

Also have a mate with the tiger11 winch
No issues at all so far

[Jamair]

Promising..... Thanks folks, I'll take a punt on some gear & see how it goes.

Cheers

i bought 4x6" light bars, 1x32" light bar, seat covers and recovery kit all for just over $300... i am really impressed with the quality so far... especially the seat covers even though they are not the perfect fit they're good for just easy cleaning etc and with them being cheap i don't care if they get ruined

[Richolux150]

I reckon a CHEAP snatch strap is the last bit of gear you would want in your recovery kit....saving money on recovery gear may cost more pain than it is worth ...cheap gear can be deadly when it breaks or the stitching lets go ......pop the extra $50 or so bucks and get a good one from ARB or similar mob....

[sammbo80]

I just bought the 9" driving lights, 2 x 22" light bars and 4 x 6" light bars.

I wasn't expecting top quality as the price is pretty much rock bottom. I have only just picked them up today and upon initial inspection they are okay. By that I mean, the build quality is average, the cable glands are average, the paint job is average. I powered them all up and no dead LEDs which is a good start. I will guarantee that they will rust though as the paint does not have 100% coverage and looks to be quite easily removed. The mounting style and hardware is pretty average too.

But hey, you get what you pay for!

Also, I will be putting up some photos of the unboxing tonight in my build thread if you're interested.

You might want to look at the test, I use to agree, but there gear is up to par, just don't expect a 5t snatch to do 6t+ and so
I've broken arb and ironman snatches so who is selling it means little other then the premium they charge,
I brought mine after I seen the testing and need a decent spair set, and I've now been using them for nilly 1 year, I get close to 3 years out of most my gear before it's ready to bin,

snap strap bake off

Hercules fixed their issues up after this, tested and verified, and they replaced the straps for free if purchased before the tests

Bought 3 Air Thumper air compressors for myself, father and uncle last year. After 2 separate recent trips, both my fathers and uncles units failed. I'm going on a trip next month, so see how it goes.

[snakesoup]

what failed on them mate?

I based my opinion on seeing what happens when straps break.........and the 'Unsealed' Test from just over a year ago backs that up....so if you are running a 12 month old Tigerz strap it could well be from the suspect batch tested........anyone can break a strap if used incorrectly and I've seen it done, wrapped around sharp edges and hey presto, two short straps.........as I said just my opinion...and I'd still rather spend an extra $50 from a reputable retailer with a proven track record than someone who recently got caught out selling sub standard safety gear.......2c

[john253a]

I got mine from the new batch after the recal,
Not saying run out and buy, each to there own,
Certain things you can go cheaper and others you can't, like fitting mild steel bolts on a pindel hook,
To me that is a can't,

My 2 best piece of recovery gear was free
1. old heavy jacket as a cover weight
2. old woman's weekly, for when I have to join 2 snatches together(you won't catch me using a shackle)

[Carpo247]

Got 9" spotties and 22" light bar pretty good for the price and wiring harness makes it easy even with the negative switched lights and I won a $50 voucher by putting my pic on there Facebook page winning!!!!

[Hobosgold]

I bought the draws, not bad for about $500 delivered to my door, only problem was the fridge slide catch does not stay locked
