For all international orders, including Canada and US territories Metal-tech 4x4 is shipping only to freight forwarders. All international orders must be shipped to a freight forwarder with a valid address within the continental US – we will not ship directly to your residence.

Payment for all international orders Metal-tech 4x4 will only accept bank wire transfers (in US dollars.) Metal-tech 4x4 does not accept credit cards or PayPal from any non-US resident. If you are in a US territory your credit card must be issued by a US bank. The Address Verification System (AVS) used by the banking system does not work with non-US banks; due to this we cannot verify the card holder’s address or name within the banking system, no other forum of ID can assist this. This policy has been put in place unfortunately due to increased international fraud that we have no recourse on. Therefore Metal-tech 4x4 will under no circumstances take any form of payment other than bank wire transfer (in US dollars). All bank transfers must be made in US dollars. All international orders must be shipped to a freight forwarder – we will not under any circumstances ship directly to your place of residence.

To request any warranty, you must contact us at info@metaltech4x4.com with a description of the issue, photo/video of the issue as well as a copy of the original purchase receipt with your full name on it. This is required for any warranty requests. Your request will be reviewed and if a warranty looks like it may exist, Metal-tech 4x4 will issue an RMA # for you to mark in plain site on the outside of the return item. The issuing of an RMA # does not mean the item has been approved for a warranty, just that it’s approved to be sent back for Metal-tech 4x4 factory review. Please note ALL warranty returns are at the consumers expense for shipping TO Metal-tech 4x4 for review. If the item is determined to NOT be covered under this warranty, it is the customer’s responsibility to pay for any return shipping expenses. If it is determined the item IS covered under the warranty, Metal-tech 4x4 will fix or replace it with like kind product available at that time and ship the item back to the customer at no charge including the return shipping. Once the warranty is exercised, the warranty is over.
Metal-tech 4x4 slider warranty:
If you are the original owner of any Metal-tech 4x4 slider and somehow bend one, simply contact us with your original purchase receipt and photos of the slider. We will issue an RMA # for you to note on the slider as you return it pre-paid to us; shipping the slider back to Metal-tech 4x4 is the consumer's responsibility. It is not pre-paid or paid for by Metal-tech 4x4 to ship back to Metal-tech 4x4 for review. Once we receive your slider, we will inspect, and if confirmed it is covered under this warranty and we will fix or replace it AND ship it back to you anywhere in the lower 48 - free of charge. We will also include a key chain made from a piece of your original slider. (To help tell the story of what it took to actually BEND a Metal-tech 4x4 slider). This limited lifetime warranty does not cover, powder coating or mounting hardware. Once the warranty is exercised, the warranty is over. This warranty is for the typical use of a slider and not for sliders involved in automobile accidents. This warranty is void if abuse is determined.
Metal-tech 4x4 Bumper Warranty:
All bumpers made by Metal-tech 4x4 carry a limited lifetime warranty. This warranty is only valid to the original purchaser of the product. This warranty applies to weldments, the Metal-tech 4x4 welded components of the bumper. All items that are considered wear items, such as but not limited to, latches, bearings, hubs, pivots, seals, pop-locks, do not have a warranty. All warranties will need to be inspected and approved. It is the customer’s responsibility to send back the product in question for inspection including covering the return shipping cost. If the item is determined to be covered under this warranty, Metal-tech 4x4 will fix or replace and ship back to the customer at no extra charge.
Metal-tech 4x4 Links:
Metal-tech 4x4 Links have a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner on the weldment of the link. This is the main body of the link that is welded to the bushing shell to be free of bending or cracking from normal use. Bushings, jam nuts, zerks, heim joints and Johnny Joints are wear items and NOT covered under a warranty.
NOTE: Links MUST be maintained on a regular basis, backing the jam nut out then tightening it back down, then greasing the bushings. In high corrosion areas we encourage once a year, dissembling and regreasing or using anti-seize on the threads of the Johnny Joint and jam nut. If a link has the threads pulled out at the Johnny Joint, this is due to lack of maintenance by not keeping the jam nut tight or allowing the jam nut to suffer corrosion locking it to the Johnny Joint, then turning with the Johnny Joint removing pressure to keep the threads locked tight. Driving on threads not kept tight will result in eventually pulling the threads out. Again, maintain and inspect on a regular basis. If you experience pulling the threads, we will review your request on a case by case basis, for a possible 50% discount on a replacement set.
Metal-tech 4x4 – All Other Manufactured Products Warranty
All manufactured products made by Metal-tech 4x4 that are weldments, welded parts of material, carry a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner on the weldment only. Any item not welded- bushings, bearings, latches, pins, plugs, plastic features, heim joints, Johnny Joints, are considered wear items and do not carry a warranty outside of 45 days from purchase. Springs sold under the Metal-tech 4x4 brand have a 1yr warranty on primary structure from date of purchase.
Finishes - Powder Coating/Anodizing/Cerakoting:
All finishes do not have any formal warranty, this is a paint process and its durability across different environments will greatly affect its longevity. If one is concerned with a finish like Powder Coating, we strongly suggest you order our raw product options and have them shipped to your local powder coater. See shipping terms regarding any cosmetic damage due to shipping damage.
OPOR LED Lights Warranty:
All OPOR LED Lights carry a limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser* that an unmodified light, will turn on and produce light. Moisture inside of a working light is not a warranty claim (remove light, remove lens, let dry, then reassemble and reinstall). If at any time they will not turn on, (check your fuse, then ground connection) and you would like to request a warranty review, follow the instructions above. Once received Metal-tech 4x4 will inspect and if they do not light up, they will be replaced with new of the same kind and quality from OPOR. In addition, Metal-tech 4x4, will provide return shipping paid for any address in the lower 48. Once the warranty has been exercised the warranty is over.
