about Flipper the Jeep
"They Call Him Flipper ..."
Flipper is a 2010 Jeep Wrangler that has been upgraded by its owners for offroad adventures. Flipper loves to explore the deserts and mountains of the American West, but spends most of its time in Wisconsin.
Flipper got its nickname because it was always "playing in the water," and because its owners
are scuba divers who love dolphins.
Modifications & Upgrades
The first thing everyone does when they buy a Jeep is modify it, and Jeep owners all want to know how others have modified theirs! Here's a partial list of Flipper's mods and upgrades.
Modifications, Upgrades, & Extras
Although you can have tons of fun with a stock Jeep, certain optional modifications, like these we've made, can make it easier, safer, and more fun. And If you take your Jeep offroad, sometimes you break things. Whenever we bend or break something, we like to replace it with one that's better than stock so - hopefully - we won't break it again.
