Help Rebuild Baby Jeep!
Donation protected
First of all, I’d like to sincerely thank Matt and Colt with Bleepin Jeep for even making this a possibility. Not only with their help the day of the rollover(s) lol, but with the help of Matt’s Offroad Recovery, BSF Recovery, Will and Cameron that were on the ride, and Moab Motorsports is the reason I’m as ok as I can be right now. I was flown into St George Regional and received exceptional care the week I was there. Unfortunately, in the second rollover, my right arm was impaled. I had three surgeries total in Utah and two more to go at some point soon back home in Charleston, SC. BSF Recovery even came to visit in the hospital!!! I have had an overwhelmingly incredible amount of support from complete strangers, family, friends, and trail buddies near and far. I’m a humble person, and this has made me realize how the wheeling community really comes
together. Whatever could be donated would be greatly appreciated. $5 donations mean just as much. Please only donate if you are able. With the cost of repairs on Baby Jeep, and medical bills in the 6 figures, of course it’s overwhelming, but I always find a way. I will be back on the trail. Baby Jeep 2.0 will be back for wheeling season 2022 because of the kindness and selfless support I’ve been provided. There’s nothing I’m more passionate about than rock crawling and helping my community. My talent had to run out at some point, but I can’t think of better people than the ones that were there and the ones that have helped me through this so far. Pure, genuine, authentic kindness can be taken for granted. When you’re a good person you don’t realize the impact of your actions each and every day. I can assure you that being on this end even humbles me more.
Five years ago I lost my left arm. Baby Jeep was the first thing I learned I could inspire people with. I had to teach myself stick all over. A month later, I was on the trail. I haven’t really left. It’s what I love to do and I’m so grateful every day. Second thing I inspired people with was one arming a 500 magnum. I now have one myself and target practice with pumpkins in the front yard lol…Seriously though, through everything, I’ve definitely learned in pure darkness there can be light. I’ve also learned the brightness of that light is up to you. I continue to run Lowcountry Wranglers (not just jeeps- anything with 4lo is welcome) and our own off-road shop. There’s nothing more satisfying than to meet really good people and get them into rock crawling. The way Bleepin Jeep showed everyone a lot of my footage so you know it’s not a yee yee send blindfolded that made me roll. Twice(still in shock lol). Sometimes we aren’t in control of what happens, but only the reaction. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank each and every person that has directly or indirectly helped me through the last few weeks and unbeknownst to you, the rest of my life.
As of now we have not completed a full inspection of the jeep but so far the following will need to be fixed or replaced:

-2 14” coil overs in the rear, mounts, tabs
-3” stretch on rear with 2 upper ca (reuse joints), dom for lowers/weld in bungs, reuse joints with possible ds modification

We also have a shop, Lowcountry Wranglers, as well as our offroad club, Lowcountry Wranglers. Everyone has been so understanding with scheduling. Thanks so much for that. I can’t express how much it means to me that Bleepin Jeep has been so helpful in putting my story out there. Love them and can’t wait to wheel with everyone including them soon! Matt said he doesn’t want to see me on that ledge but I will get redemption! As soon as these surgeries are done and I can get to repairing everything, I will make a video diary introducing myself, and Baby Jeep, along with my progress the progress of Baby Jeep 2.0 and post it on our Instagram page @lowcountrywranglers !!!
