Default Line Lock ?

I have 04 with 315 rear thinking about installing a line lock, best place to order from and how hard are they to install?
Thanks

We sell our line like kit for 249.95 plus shipping.

The line lock kit bolts right up and no modifications required…it is custom fit

and comes with the option of an “on off” or “momentary” switch.

We have them in stock and ready to ship.

If you want a bolt on unit go with the Cartek. I have heard great things about them.

If you want to build your own setup using a Hurst Line-Lock HERE is how to do it!

I really like the Hurst Line-Locks, been using them since the 70's without a single problem. It was a little work, but I think it was well worth the outcome.

Cartek, for me the wiring took more time then the lines. Fairly simple install.

I put in a Hurst but you have to bend all your own tubing. If you go Cartek it bolts right up. Im happy with the Hurst just takes a little work.
