Built Tough for Australian Conditions by Aussie 4x4 Enthusiasts
At Outback Exhausts, we don't just manufacture exhaust systems—we engineer performance solutions designed specifically for the harsh Australian outback and the demands of serious 4x4 enthusiasts.
Our Story
Outback Exhausts, formerly known as Factory Direct 4x4 Exhausts, began by producing premium exhaust systems for other manufacturers and distributors across Australia. As the industry evolved and our reputation for quality grew, we established our own brand, OUTBACK EXHAUSTS, in 2014 to sell directly to customers worldwide.
Today, our products are proudly manufactured in Australia at our state-of-the-art facility in Southeast Queensland, where we combine decades of expertise with cutting-edge manufacturing techniques.
What Makes Us Different
We specialize in 4x4 performance exhaust systems, offering an extensive range of options for both recent and older 4x4 models. Every system is engineered in Australia and designed to withstand the toughest Australian conditions.
