I've got 5 Swamper TSL's sitting in the shop that I just ordered...
I would like to groove them and have a pattern picked out in the way I am going to do them...
The main problem is lack of tool...I don't wanna spend $100+ just to do 6 tires...
Here is what I am offering...
I am willing to put down a deposit, or insurance, or some form of return reassurance, if someone would ship their groover for use, I'll promptly use it, return it, then you send back the $$$ and keep an agreed upon amount for yourself.
Would anyone be interested?
Sweet, thanks Daniel, you are da man...I Pm'd you!

Guys - a hand-held groover is about $60....
Shipping is gonna run you $20 or so both ways, more if Daniel's is one of the larger grooving units...
Am I missing something here?

Snake,
I live about 45 minutes from Gary Indiana. If you want to come over some weekend you can use the groover for free.
PM me if interested.

Afco racing groover is $59 with $5 shipping. I cut each V of my TSL's in half. Took me about an hour to do all 4. I just used teh standard #5 tip. Its the exact same size as the stock grooves in a swamper, well at least a 36" swamper.
Cool deal Daniel, nice to know there are still nice people out there:D
Sure man, I don't mind paying a lil bit extra $$$ to use a good tool...Plus time is limited between work and working on the yota, so If i can use it while I am at work between mounting semi tires or dead spells then I can knock it out in a day or two...

I mat need to do that also Daniel. I am changing my mind slowly on what tires I am going to run. I am thinking some of those 43 inch XLs might work better on a 20 inch wheel.

I can gruuve a 1 inch by 1/2 inch groove in a tire as fast as someone can cut hair!! NO SMOKE no bent blades no crooked cuts ect!
If someone really wants to groove cuts THAT big (most have no need) a chainsaw works surprisingly well :p
Otherwise, my little "soldering iron" as you like to call it will do 90% of the grooving people in 4 wheeling are looking to do... And with you charging $25 plus shipping both ways - about the same money and they can OWN a groover like I have :p
