Line Lock Help!

[imported_Big Red]

Anyone had experience with a line lock. Buying a rear disc conversion and want to install the lie lock. Any suggestions or secrets? Thanks!

for what reason...

Try Sumitt Racing or Jegs, they both sell line lock kits. BTW, nice web site and Chief!

I have one installed for the rear brakes. It works good I suppose. I normally put mine in park when I get out though so I am not sure which one is holding it. I have seen people install them on each wheel and use them as cutting brakes. Mine is the push type. I have a few friends running the lever type. It has never popped up on me unless I hit the brake pedal. I use it while I am towing too. As far as brand it is one of the 29.99 specials that summit sells.

Yup, I run one that locks my frontend. Works great...don't spend the extra money on the bling bling ones. The 30 buck ones work great. I've used mine to hold the truck on steep hills to fix broken driveshafts, yokes, whatever...it's never failed.

RB, Will be used as a parking brake. Now that I have a T18, if I am on any type of decline or incline, BR rolls when I start it. You know about the hydroboost and how it acts when the engine is not running. Coerting to the rear disc, there is no cables for the parking brakes. Oh I went with the econo brake line also. I think I am going to run it next to the driver's seat for easy access. Any other suggestions?

Like andrew said, dont get some fancy one, dont spend more for something that gets the same job done as the cheaper one.

I plumbed mine in to the dash. It took a little more work but I like it better than in the floor. Mine has the black button so it looks kinda factory.

Thanks for the clarification.... I thought someone on the board got Caddy rear discs and used E-brake cables.....
