FAQ

We get it, find the answers to your questions

We have streamlined our method to deliver new coyote swap builds quickly. Select bronze, silver, or gold packages for completion in 3-6 months.

In most cases, builds in the revival series begin on a new frame from Porterbuilt Fabrication. A deposit of half the chassis and parts cost is required at purchase, with the remaining balance due upon completion of the fully-loaded chassis. The payment method transitions to weekly invoicing once your truck is brought into production and labor begins on your truck.

We’ve always been a custom shop, and that hasn’t changed with ‘The Revival Series’. Customers still have the freedom to choose which upgrades they want or don't want, while we maintain a Fat Fender standard of upgrades. By narrowing down the options, we’re able to deliver high-quality trucks without falling into the endless loop of customizations.

Trust us, your truck won't look like anyone else's.

Ride Height and Suspension

There are 3 different ride height and suspension packages to choose from
Level 1 (Coilover, 1-2" Drop)

Elevate your comfort and style with our 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 Vintage Series editions.

(Rear wheel openings will not be modified, and therefore, any vintage series edition on a level 1 chassis will be limited to widths on rear wheels.)

Level 2 (Coilover, 4-6" Drop)

Enhance your vehicle's style with our Level 2 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 Vintage Series with a level 2 ride height will be constructed with a wood bed including those model years that originally come with metal beds, which are available upon request.)

Level 3 (Airride, Slammed)

Experience luxury and style with our Level 3 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. Level 3 bed floors will also be finished with a flat panel seen when the tailgate is down.
