Line Lock
Can anyone here give me any insight, into the world of line locks. What brand to purchase, what features to look for. Aprox cost, how hard to install. Results to expect, ect..........

I installed a Cartek kit a couple of weeks ago. You will pay about $50 more for the Cartek kit over the Hurst but the good thing is the brake line is pre bent. You can see the install here.

I have the TCI set-up. All these are is a soloniod and a switch. That said, the Cartek unit comes with prebent lines and fittings so it's the easiest package out there. Biondo, TCI, Hurst all make these units for about $100.00

But if you get the Hurst kit, don't forget about buying the install kit and a tubing bender and flare tools. That is why I went with Cartek.
