Default Line Locks -- Going to start taking orders again

I'm just over a week from returning home, and have decided to start taking orders for line locks again. Estimate ship dates will be the week of May 26th. Any orders between now and friday next week will be completed over Memorial Day weekend and shipped ASAP the following week.

Currently I have one on the block, and have plenty of room for extras. I've got a good adapter supplier finally so I should have no problem keeping parts stock on hand.

www.c5linelocks.fastbird93.com

And some better news: You 97-98 guys with the rear mounted ABS pump.....your end may be in sight. I should be getting with a local member over Memorial Day weekend, and I have an idea that I think just may work like a champ.

Other stuff? I should be soon releasing an option for the line lock kits, an ash-tray replacing panel for clean mounting of the activation switch.

Also, look for some other products and a totally new web page to be coming from me here around the end of the month.

Thanks everyone!!!!

locks your front tires and releases the brakes from the rear tires so that you can do a proper burnout without destroying your brakes.

What they said. Primarily a drag racing tool although some people have been known to show off with them also.

Then you buy the tires that smoke in color.
