Hi Deon,
If you specifically want to do these passes, they can be done in the four days you propose quite comfortably.
Twins Pass is not a marked pass, and I am not aware of any hikers having used it recently other than myself. It does get some local traffic, which I saw evidence of, and doesn't have a trail except near the bottom, and then a good trail to the junction with the Ntonjelana Pass trail at the river crossing at the bottom of Ntonjelana Pass.
I have done write ups with photos on both of these passes, which you can find in the index of Drakensberg Passes. If you haven't already read the write up on Twins Pass, this will give you all the detail that you need to do the Pass.

We decided to rather do Mlombonja up and Cockade down. Thank you for the info.
