R&D Offroad Brackenfell Cape Town 4×4 Fitment Centre

This isn’t your average 4×4 shop — it’s where serious overlanders come to get their rigs built properly. Founded by Cris Ingram in 2003, R&D Offroad earned its reputation turning out expedition-ready vehicles for clients crossing every continent. From basic bull bar installs to complete overland conversions, the crew here has the skills and independence to source whatever parts your build needs. Their workshop stays busy with vehicles heading everywhere from the Kalahari to the Arctic.

The shop’s location in Brackenfell puts it within reach of both Cape Town and the overland routes heading north. As an independent fitment centre, they can work with any brand — no franchise limitations on what they’ll install. Book ahead for major builds, especially during overlanding season. Their work has a reputation for holding up when you’re 1000 miles from the nearest town.
