Summary

I know you have been there… Trying to decide if you wanted to use the hand warmers or save them for another day, well now you don't have to. Jimmy shares his love of hand warmers, but just any hand warmers. He loves the Hot SnapZ brand primarily because they are reusable. Once you get a few of these you never have to worry about whether you should use them or what if they went bad. Hot SnapZ looks like a gel packet with a little metal disk inside. When you snap the disk the gel hardens and becomes warm. It will heat up to around 120° and could last upwards of 2hrs. All you need to do to reuse them is toss them into a pot of boiling water and wait till all the crystals have dissolved... Bam you're ready for round two.

Inner Beadlocks are a fantastic way to make your wheels have the beadlock feature when you don't have beadlock wheels. It not only locks in the outer beadlock like everyone is used to but it also locks the inner bead as well. Jimmy runs a version of these on Bobcat and absolutely loves them.

0:00.0	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.
0:11.3	It honestly does great in both scenarios.
0:13.6	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
0:21.3	that goes a lot to show how well it's engineered, how well the roll center is controlled,
0:26.4	and how well the geometry all goes together. No matter what I'm doing, I feel stable. I feel predictable.
0:31.4	It's fantastic. That makes a lot of sense because they are designed to be great on and off road.
0:39.4	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
0:43.5	I'm throwing the body off the chassis anymore. I just have one question. What's that?
0:47.4	When are we putting some four wheel underground parts underneath Samantha? Soon. Very soon. And I'm
0:51.7	excited to do so. And if you are looking to move your vehicle from
0:55.6	Leaf Springs to a linked suspension kit, make sure to check Snail Trail 4x4 podcast.
1:18.0	If you like going off-roading in Toyotas, wrenching on Toyotas, camping in Toyotas, maybe poking a little bit of fun at Toyotas, and of course hearing about how well Toyota's, maybe poking a little bit of fun at Toyota's, and of course, hearing about how well
1:30.8	Toyota heaters work, then this is the podcast for you.
1:37.7	Hey, everybody, welcome to the Snail Trail 4x4 podcast.
1:41.5	This is Jimmy Jet, and I'm in the studio all alone once again. Though I did get to
1:47.0	see Tyler today. Oh, it's rather exciting. He has been, shall we say, like has cabin fever,
1:54.7	and he's a little cooped up these days, and he felt like he needed to get out. And so he asked
2:00.5	me if I finished cutting up the
2:02.1	last section of the tree. I told him no. And I was like, well, do you need your saws back?
