Q: Do you do LS or LT engine swaps?
Yes, we can do full turnkey GM LS/LT engine conversions into a wide variety of 4x4’s. Most conversions start around $13,000 and go up from there depending on options and the vehicle its going in.

Q: Do you install Parts or Brands that you don’t offer?
Yes, we are happy to install high quality parts from brands we do not yet carry such as Carli Suspension, Metalcloak and many others, contact us if you have a specific part or brand in mind?
Q: Are there parts or brands you won’t install?
Our belief that all upgrades and modification should improve the vehicle means that sometimes we may refuse to install parts or products that we believe will degrade vehicle performance or may make a vehicle unsafe or unreliable.
Q: Do you work on all 4x4’s?
For the most part yes, we work on all 4x4’s, however we are at our best when working on Jeeps, Land Rover Defenders, Raptors, TRX’s and most pickup’s.
Q: Do you work on things that aren’t 4x4’s, like muscle cars, imports etc?
To provide you with the best service possible we try to keep to focusing on 4x4’s even though were gear heads and love most anything automotive.
Restomod FAQ
Q: What is a restomod?
Our restomods combine the best of old and new. Every build is a unique bespoke creation built to meet the needs and wants of a specific customer. They can range from lightly updated with modern conveniences to full custom builds utilizing the best parts available. Contact us to discus your build.
Q: Whats different about a 4x4 Fabworks restomod?
We feel an increasing number of restomods from other builders are what we’d call bolt on restomods. Meaning they’re simply an assembly of readily available one size parts assembled into a cool 4x4. Instead, our restomods are designed from the ground up to fit a specific purpose or goal, to achieve this we design and manufacture critical components such as engine mounts, transmission mounts, exhaust headers and any other parts we need to achieve the fit, function and performance desired.
Q: What kind of restomods do you build?
Our most popular and frequent restomods are build from Jeep CJ’s, Land Rover Defenders and classic full size GM Trucks and 4x4’s.
Q: How much do your restomods typically cost?
Due to the wide range of custom options available our restomods have a very wide price range. Most start from $50k when you provide the donor vehicle to $80k if we source the donor.
Q: Can you make a restomod out of the classic 4x4 I already have?
Yes, while we prefer to source the vehicle to help get you the best possible foundation for your build we can work with a classic 4x4 you already own.
Q: Do your restomods use all new parts or can you reuse and rebuild my existing parts?
It’s up to the customer, we can repair, restore, and reuse as many original parts and components as the buyer would like. Alternatively for some classic 4x4’s such as Jeep CJ’s we can build a 100% new vehicle if you prefer or anywhere in between.
Jeep FAQ
Q: Do you offer alignments for Jeeps (including long arm kits)?
Yes, we offer complete 4-wheel alignments for all 4x4’s. Our technicians have lots of experience dealing with fully adjustable suspensions and can dial in your Jeeps Caster and pinion angles for the best handling possible with no driveline vibrations.
Q: Do you offer custom wrangler driveshafts?
Yes, depending on the Jeep we offer custom driveshafts from Tom Woods or Adams Driveshaft.
Q: I already have a lift on my Jeep, but it drives really badly, do I need a new lift or can you fix it?
Every Jeep is unique, but generally bad handling Wranglers suffer from worn parts and or poor suspension geometry. In most cases our technicians can pinpoint the source of your issues and replace only the parts required to address the issues. Contact us to schedule a diagnosis for your handling issues.
Q: Can you fix my death wobble?
Yes, our technicians are uniquely qualified to find the root cause of your death wobble and eliminate it using only the parts, repairs or adjustments required. We don’t ever just throw parts at problems.
