The Waratahs ran in eleven tries on their way to a 10-72 hammering of the Southern Kings in Port Elizabeth.
Waratahs winger Cam Crawford scored a hat-trick of tries and almost scored a fourth but was denied by the TMO.
The result is the Waratahs first victory on South African soil since they beat the Lions in 2009.
The 62 point victory also gets the Waratahs back in the mix for the play offs as it clears their points deficit and moves them up to seventh place just outside the wild card qualifiers.
The Waratahs will now fly back to Australia as they host the Stormers in Sydney next week while the Southern Kings host the Highlanders who ended their losing streak against the Sharks this week.
