Default C5 Line Lock?

Is there a line lock available for the C5? If so, where can I buy one from and how much is it?

Thanks in advance for any info! ;)

I hear that Cartek has a kit available.........or you can try a self install like me and so many others and end up doing a lot of this------> :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :jester

I bought the TCI unit from summitracing and went to a local speed shop to buy some SS brake hoses and fittings. Cost about a total of $130ish to install everything.

Hurst roll control is the only way to go. A little red button on the shifter press and squeeze . You are out of there. :seeya :steering:

Bought mine from summit - TCI Roll Stop - about 70 bucks, I think
I have a 2002 Coupe with Active Handling and let me tell you it was a biscuit to install :mad

My biggest problem was finding the stupid "japanese" fittings and getting the "GM" double Roll Flange on the end of the new line.

I actually ended up taking the stock line and cutting it to tie in with the new line, so i could use the stock fittings, after that not one problem, works great and works real good :cheers:

P.S. i did buy the hardware kit from summit also as recommended, but none of the fittings worked out right, for my car that had active handling, i was also told at the time cartek didnt make the complete set for a car with A/H?? dont know if that is still true.

Can you use the braided, stainless steel hoses that are flexible?

You need to use the teflon braided hose. The 'normal' braided hose for fuel does not hold enough pressure for brake lines. The teflon braided hose holds 2500 psi.
