For some reason they advertise line-locks do not work with ABS. I have a line-lock on my 94, and it and the ABS system works perfectly.

It's a Jegs brand. But, they all work the same.

ABS engages when you have your foot on the brake.
When you have line lock engaged your foot is NOT on the brake.

I've got an 87 and the ABS works fine also.
