Yeah, my concern on that was for Iron Indian. Sorry shoulda quoted him on that, but wanted to put it out for everyone also. Not sure what's going on friday yet, but if I can get down that way, I'll let you know. It'll be nice to finally see old girl hit the track.lol!!!

Just something to think about, if using for the e-brake, would it pull too much voltage to kill the batt. And if it does, wouldn't your e-brake be shut off due to the loss of power. Just something that crossed my mind while reading this.

What do you mean? Please explain.

I want the line lock not only for burnouts or what not but for a parking brake too. I honestly don't use a parking brake that often, but I want that option if and when I need it.

I've spent why too much time and money on my parking brake setup to have something that doesn't work at all. I'm sick of deal with it and need to go another route for my sanity.

Let me know when you get yours parts TDC! Hope you get it figured out! I'd like to see pics and/or a write up if you can do so. Been a busy weekend for me, not much car work happen this weekend...
 
I was looking at the brake lines today. the one line coming FROM the master cylinder going to the ABS box........ would you be abl to make up your own line....and put the solenoid in there? I am not sure what would happen snce it is inline before the ABS box........

I dont know...... just a thought.

trial and error.....
 
Looked at it yesterday urlosn and it would have to be after the abs box. Otherwise it would not let the brakes lock up. There is a left rear and a right rear brake line comming from the abs box. The lines comming out of the abs box would have to be split or joined into one going into the line lock and split again comming out going back to each wheel.
 
It's looking like the t fittings would be the route to go. Sense it was brought up, it's the only thing I can think of also.

Sorry I missed this one. I was just saying that if the line lock is used for a e-brake, would the solenoid pull too much power from the batt to kill it over a certain amount of time, lets say over night. And if it does, the solenoid would release the pressure and the e-brake would not be engaged anymore. Just a thought I had.
 
Going to go with a silinoid for each wheel. Do all of the wiring for my self. and set it up that way. That way theres no guessing. well see what this next check looks like.
