"I should take all that back".... no can do brother. The truckin gods heard you brag and will smite you for it😂😂😂
@thepostman69 I know. I usually catch myself before I do it. A buddy of mine used to do it and I told him he's just asking for it. Sure enough, he had a pretty rough year. He never brags on that truck or insults it, EVER. He catches me when I'm about to do it and I catch him. You can think its coincidental all you want until it becomes a clear pattern. 😆 🤣 Dang truck has ears and she's.....well I'm not saying it, but it rhymes with Betty and starts with p.
@aftersolo a wise old timer once told me, "They're our horses, and a good cowboy has unwavering faith in his stallion." Shit stuck with me and I've never doubted any of my rigs. It's perfect you got someone to catch you and vise versa. I'm not so lucky, just me and my invasive thoughts, ha!
@@thepostman69 Yeah. He's a good guy.
Thank you for showing this!

This is the first video about regroovg I’ve seen with not a single comment about how “dangerous” this is, tire companies just want to sell new tires and all people fall for it🤦🏻♂️ just don’t cut them to much and it’ll be fine I would put any front tire you cut on the back though.
For sure. I'm shocked too that there's no negative comments.
Good content
Thankyou
I've been calling around to see but I don't think any shops regroove anymore. unless it was a liability thing I feel it's just a way to sell tires especially when it says regroovable stamped from the manufacturer. Even being conservative with the cutting depth would get you a few hundred thousand more miles well worth it.
I believe there's some places in Houston that will do it. Probably Dallas too. I get another 4 to 6 months out of the tires.
Like adjusting distributor points 😂 tighten and it changes 😢
No hate here brother in 2024 who has 2500$ for cheap drives I bought a regroover and it’s honestly the best 140$ I’ve ever spent why replace when you can repair and it’s legal if I can get another 25k out of my tires miles are money not very much money in 2024 but in that 25k I’ll save for the new set of drives
Yup. It's definitely well worth the money. You just have to know what you're doing. Last couple tires I did, I went too deep and had to scrap them. I honestly need a better tire regroover. The one I got sucks. Is yours pretty good?
@@aftersolo yeah I got one off eBay has the box with the switches and dials it’s the instant heat up and cool down kind has the big wide flat head instead of the narrow pointed one like you have works great very steady cuts like hit knife through butter $131 plus tax
@@donmccord I got to get that. Do you know what brand it is?
@@aftersolo China lol
I’ve always wanted to do this to get some extra life from my tires but I’ve always been scared of taking to much off
It's very easy to go too deep. I always use something with a sharp end like a test light or an ice pick and stab the tire til I feel cords. That tells me how much rubber I have and I can figure out how much tread to take off. I check the tread depth on the other tires and if it's the same, then I just leave the tire regroover where it's at. Practice on an old tire first to get the hang of it. I wouldn't recommend my tire regroover. It's cheap. The more expensive ones are much easier and safer to use. They pay themselves off with just 3 or 4 tires. I think there are some places that will regroove the tires for you in Houston and maybe Dallas. I would go to Google maps and search 'regroove' and see what pops up.
