Line Lock going in today....

[TxStVanWilder]

... well i hope atleast today...

ill do a build thread with all PN's and whatnot and as many pics as i can... but i want to know from some people who have done them, which way worked best for you... i know Mic has 2, one to control front brakes and one to control rear (now i understand what you meant lol)

how have yall done them?? do you lock the front wheels?? or do you lock out the rear brakes to where you can control the peddle pressure on the front tires and able to roll out??

plus any advice/tips/tricks would be helpful...

Well if it's a auto you only need one, I would put it on the rear so you could flip the switch and lock out the rear brakes from being used during a burnout, That way you can control how fast you roll by letting off the brake pedal.

If it is a stick you need to one to lock out the rear like in the auto and on to lock the front in while you start the burnout, then once it started unlock the front and control the roll out with the pedal again.

sorry i forgot to mention its an auto 2wd

Just put it on the rear brakes so so when you flip the switch it blocks the rear brakes from getting fluid and the rear will free spin. And the front will work like normal.

im pretty much planning on doing it very similar to how this guy did his over on PT.net

On the rear FTW. I would have never thought someone would say so other than me because of the old school way of thinking but you shut off the rear with the LL and pump the brakes to get the usually larger and stronger fronts to hold while you PEEEEEEELLLLL OOOOUTTTTT.

The way i did mine you dont have to cut any lines. It was easy to install too. But i had to bend all my lines to fit up just right. i plan on getting some flex lines made for some line lock kits for these trucks. that would make it super easy. if i ever get home i will....lol.. good luck on the install... oh and ya, and since i went auto in my truck, i dont even use the front wheel lock. just lock out the rears..

yeah i spent a few hours making a braket that fits inside the frame rail and holds the solenoid. there is almost NO room at all to mount it somewhere, so i just decided to make room

just gotta paint it and itll be done... then wire it up when i already have a bunch of the interior out this week

[WARLOCK]

You gonna post up some pics when its all done?

[TxStVanWilder]

yeah ill post up pics... i have damn near 30 pictures of just the braket being built (because i have nothing to do)

i think itll look pretty good... i made it to where it clears the ABS block and the fuel lines going from front to rear
