Line lock Question

Hurst Roll Controll is what it's called actually. Is there a problem putting this on my'98? What about ABS? Where is the best mounting point? Which line to hook into? I installed this on my Viper without any issues but it is a '94.(no abs no technology at all) It was easy, I just dont want to screw up something here. Thanks.

I used the hurst and had no issues putting it in. It does not affect the ABS. I made a stainless plate and mounted it under my brake booster. I mounted the switch in the traction control panel. It just takes time and when you buy the tubing to bend get plenty I ruined a few feet before I got it right.

I have the TCI unit, but they are basicly the same and work well.

What year is your car? The line changes dependent on year and type of brake line from master cylinder to abs module (one piece or two piece).

On your 98 is the ABS module in the front or the back?

Follow the brake lines from the fluid reservoir -- do they go underneath the alternator to the front of the car into a unit with other brake lines going into it (sitting right in front of the alternator and power steering pump)?

Yes, where those brake lines come together is the ABS module. This is what you are looking for…on all 97 models and some earlier 98 models had this Distribution box by the rear end.
