2WD CHASSIS

The street-built foundation. Sit how you want, drives how it should.

FROM THE FRAME UP

Spec it in our configurator: ride height, suspension, drivetrain, brakes, steering, and upgrades. Pick a mild Street stance, an aggressive Sport setup, or a fully laid-out Air Ride. A Fat Fender chassis specialist then reviews your build for compatibility and sends back a ballpark quote.

CHOOSE YOUR STANCE

Three setups, from street-friendly to slammed.

STREET:

Elevate your comfort and style with our Street Coilover Suspension package. Experience a smoother ride with a subtle ride height adjustment, keeping your vehicle’s classic charm intact. No alterations are made, preserving the original design, ensuring a seamless fit for Revival Series editions. 

(Rear wheel openings will not be modified, and therefore, any Revival Series edition on a Street chassis will be limited to widths on real wheels.)

STREET:

SPORT

Enhance with our Sport package, lowering the ride height and making precision modifications to the bed floor. This customization offers a sleek appearance and the option to widen rear wheel openings while retaining the choice of a wood or metal bed floor for a personalized touch. Overall stance will maintain roughly 4” to 6” of ground clearance at the rocker panel, and rear wheel openings can be modified up to 12” wide. All Revival Series with a Sport ride height will be constructed with a wood bed including those model years that originally come with metal beds which are available upon request.

AIR

Experience luxury and style with our Air package, featuring an adjustable ride height that allows you to lay the chassis on the ground when air bags deflate for ultimate customization. Choose between wood or metal bed floors, and enjoy a lowered cruising height with a ground clearance of 4” to 5” at the rocker panel. Air bed floors will also be finished with a flat panel seen when the tailgate is down. Bed floor modifications will be static and do not include the ability to open and close the floor. Available on request.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Find quick answers about pricing, lead times, fitment, drivetrain options, shipping, and what to expect when building your chassis.

We require a 50% deposit to get started, and the remaining 50% once the chassis is complete. If FFG is providing a drivetrain, that payment can be staggered up to 30 days after deposit is received.

While we do not provide shipping, we are happy to help facilitate pick up/travel and put you in touch with the right transport company.

We design and manufacture chassis solutions for select classic Ford and Chevy trucks. Each chassis is purpose-built for its specific platform.

Ford

  • 1953–56 F100
  • 1957–60 F100
  • 1961–66 F100
  • 1967–72 F100
  • 1973–79 F100 / F150
  • 1973–79 F250 / F350
  • 1966–77 Bronco
  • 1978–79 Bronco

Chevrolet

  • 1955-59 C10
  • 1960-66 C10
  • 1967–72 C10/Blazer
  • 1973–87 C10 (select configurations)

Pricing

Most chassis packages range from $30,000–$75,000+, depending on suspension, drivetrain, and options.

Coming Soon

1980s–1990s Ford OBS platforms are not currently offered, but are under active consideration for future development.

Varies depending on options, however the average chassis takes 20 weeks in production, and 4 weeks for final assembly. (Depending on powdercoat, drivetrain, brake/fuel lines, etc.)

Absolutely, the cab mounts on the chassis are in the same location as factory. They are fully bolt-on, incase your cab isn't square and the mounts need to be adjusted for perfect fitment.

We have options for 56" and 60" rear axles (2WD), depending on the wheels/tires you would like to use. For 4WD packages, we typically use a 66" front & rear axle.

We currently have 3 different ride height options for our 2WD frames, and 2 different ride height options for our 4WD frames:

2WD:

  • Level 1 (Coilovers) : 1-2" drop from stock ride height 
  • Level 2 (Coilovers): 4-6" drop from stock ride height (requires bed modifications)
  • Level 3 (Airbags): Lays frame (requires bed modifications)

4WD:

  • 10" Coilovers: 3-4" lift from stock ride height
  • 12" Coilovers: 5-6" lift from stock ride height

Absolutely, our frames are designed for daily driving/highway cruising as opposed to track racing, etc.

We standardly use the 5.0 Coyote (Ford), 7.3L Godzilla (Ford), LS3 (Chevy), and LT4 (Chevy). Any other drivetrain will be handled as a case-by-case basis, unless we have any historical data available.

They are adjustable 1-2" coilovers, rated to 900 lbs.

We typically use Magnaflow for our 5.0 Coyote builds, but have several options available.

You bet, both the frame and drivetrain are covered by manufacturer warranty, and FFG labor warranty.

We typically use a 3.75" pulley when using a 3.0L Whipple Supercharger, but have more options available based on application.

Our 4WD chassis typically provide a 4-6" lift from factory ride height, depending on wheel/tire selections.

You bet, we are able to sell our 2WD chassis packages without brakes or suspension, although it is recommended they are sourced from FFG for the best compatibility.
