Summary

Tyler and Jimmy had the opportunity to sit down with Dmitriy and Jesse from Stellar Built to talk about the inaugural run of the Moscow Mule. The Moscow Mule is a highly modified 4th Gen 4Runner. In this episode, we discuss what has been done to this beast, and how many modifications needed to be made to get it to sit around 22 inches belly height. It was a pleasure to watch the mule roll down the Rubicon Trail during the TLCA 4runner and Mini Truck Rubithon run. Have you always wanted to ask us a question... well now you can!

Where does the four-wheel underground suspension shine more?

0:04.6

Creeping crawling on the Rubicon or going crazy fast out on Johnson Valley desert floor?

0:10.0

Yeah, good question.

0:11.4

It honestly does great in both scenarios.

0:13.7

Whether I'm going through the Rubicon or doing 50 to 60 miles an hour through washes at Johnson Valley,

0:18.6

it's really impressive what the suspension does. I think that

0:21.5

goes a lot to show how well it's engineered, how well the roll center is controlled, and how well the

0:27.3

geometry all goes together. No matter what I'm doing, I feel stable. I feel predictable. It's fantastic.

0:32.8

That makes a lot of sense because they are designed to be great on and off road. That's true. I do drive the

rig to and from the trails as well. And I noticed on tight, windy mountain roads, I don't feel like

0:47.4

When are we putting some four wheel underground parts underneath Samantha? Soon. Very soon.

0:51.4

And I'm excited to do so. And if you are looking to move your vehicle from

Lee Springs to a linked suspension kit, make sure to check out 4-wheel underground.com.

Welcome one, welcome all to the snail trail four-by-four podcast.

1:21.1

If you like going off-roading in Toyotas, wrenching on Toyotas, camping in Toyoters,

1:23.6

maybe we've spoken a little bit of fun in Toyotas, and of course we're hearing about how Moscow meals are on Toyotas.

1:24.9

And this is the podcast for you.

1:28.1

What are you looking at me like that for?

1:30.1

Did you try to make that one in one breath?

1:32.4
