About Us

Pop the hood on a diesel enthusiast's truck somewhere in North America and you may find my company's logo on the engine. Welded to an intake or intercooler pipe, this logo represents an awesome responsibility to the diesel enthusiast community that has supported WCFab over the years. It's a commitment to ensure WCFab products meet the highest standards of craftsmanship and fitment. We care enough to put our name on it.

Where We Came From

Our story begins circa 2010 in a two-truck garage at my parents’ house in Sandwich, Illinois. Like many of our customers, motorsports played an important role in my life growing up. Dirt bikes, ATVs, snowmobiles, trucks, racing - you know the drill. When stuff broke, I didn't have the cash to have someone else fix it, so my brothers and I did the work ourselves. That eventually led me to fix other people's things, too. Originally, I bought my first Duramax to haul my race trailer around. It didn't take long for me to develop a passion for diesel power, which led to even more work. By 2011, the garage was no longer cutting it!

We moved to our first shop in Sugar Grove with 2,400 SF. We kept expanding into adjoining spaces, growing to 8,500SF in only four years. By 2015, we ran out of space again and moved to a 22,500SF shop in Sycamore. More than doubling the size let us bring powder coating in-house, creating the eye-popping colors you see under our customers’ hoods.

In Spring 2018, we moved into a 35,000 SF facility in DeKalb, Illinois, after outgrowing the shop in Sycamore. The powder coat shop expanded to include high temperature resistant ceramic coatings and two curing ovens. We also added CNC mills and lathes to help advance our R&D work and high-quality production.

In early 2022, we made our last move (hopefully) into a brand-new, state-of-the-art 112,000 SF facility just down the road from our last building in DeKalb, Illinois. Moving into this space, three times larger than our last shop, gives us more opportunities and room to grow. Tripling the size of our Powder Coating Operation, additional CNC machines, more Auto Lifts, and new manufacturing lines including Laser Cutting and CNC Press Brake.

Today, Wehrli Custom Fabrication & Powder Coating employs over 70 people, including my three brothers, Ryan, Mitch, and Chad, and my wife, Brittany. We're an ever-growing group of hard-working, dedicated individuals with talents spanning the board. Our goal is to serve you with the highest quality products, service, and technical advice.
