I can't chop on my work computer... but I say you kill every other little outer lug... then diagonally groove ALL your center lugs... I would recommend you buying one... I'm getting one pretty soon...i don't know anybody who has one around there... unless David may...

i don't really want to buy one right now, i'd rather spend the money to get it goin again, so if i have to wait i will, but if anyone had one, i'd probably get it,

i don't really want to cut whole lugs out either, i'd rather leave the side ones, and just groove the inner long ones

I think the ONLY way to get them to clean out better will be to pull out some of those side lugs... they're just too close...

As for the groover... Just buy one... I think the AFCO heated knife is only 60 bucks... then you can loan it to others instead of being that stingy bitch who is always borrowing stuff. :flipoff2:

i don't think i'm the stingy bitch thats always borrowing stuff, i have most of what i need for now, and $60 is a lot when your only workin 20 hrs/week

not implying you were, but sometimes you need to buy tools.... especially when nobody else has one for you to borrow... when I get one I'll be charging to loan it out...they aren't common, and they aren't exactly very durable.

I like the way the top right one looks - seems like it would have a lot of tread left and grab well with those cuts - but along the same lines as Doug, have you thought about getting rid of the smallest outer lug, or maybe cutting a line through the big outer lug that protrudes out past the sidewall?

i thought about the outter lugs, just not sure if i want to cut full lugs out yet, hopefully i'll have the jeep ready around christmas, hopefully, but after its first outting, i'll decide after that, but i'm almost certain to cut the center ones some, i kinda liked the same one, but not sure how they'll clean in mud

I think Busa has been talking about getting a groover. Maybe talk to him?

Here's some that were grooved to hell:

I *think* they're thornbirds, I could just be dumb though...

Oh, to be back in college. When it took more than hour(s) to earn $60. I wouldn't have been able to even contemplate ordering the shafts I bought yesterday. Man it's nice to be out.


In other news...

No, I don't have one. Don't plan on buying one either. Looks like you'll be going without.

PS - Doug, keep blowing Hal. Your posts are a lot more useful when you're under the desk instead of at the keyboard.:D

I bet he's humming the words "the wheels on the bus go round and round..." (Bang Bus style) isn't he.

Actually, I know about it from a couple of 30-something guys who's businesses share an office. All they do is screw off all day. That's what one of them does with his time. I've never seen it, but it sounds pretty funny. I always think of the Miller Lite commercials when they talk about it. Like someone is going to say, "hey, my wife does that".
