Default Line lock...before or after ABS module?

I did a search but couldn't find the answer. Is the line lock plumbed in before or after the ABS module?

I believe ABS became standard on Corvettes in 1986.

I've seen linelocks installed on C4's and it was installed BEFORE the ABS! That alone doesn't mean that it's right...

That question might be related to his truck and not his Vette...

That is true. It's a general question related to my '94 S15 Jimmy. Even though I have a Vette my experience sometimes has been if I mention the question is not related to the Vette I don't get much response.
I belong to a few S10 forums but the demographic is different and many times I only get short smartazz answers from those young boys like "who needs ABS, just rip it out".
Anyway, I just thought I'd ask.

The C4 or C5 section might get you better answers than in the C3 section.. Some of us just don't know about all the modern stuff

Like I said, I saw linelocks on C4's and they were usually right after the master cylinder, before the ABS..

I'd set it up like this. Since the line lock is just simulating you holding your foot on the brake, put it up by the MC.

It has to hook into the system after the ABS I for get which lines but you have to "T" off from the brick and go back to the line lock,You ?I think on a 94 have to hook into the A line comming out of the brick and something else.I would have to look at my factory book to be sure.
I know if you hook it up wrong the front brakes will lock and you will have to unscrew the bleader valve at the brake calaber to release the presure.I found it hard to do that after my burnout.In the c4 section their were some pictures with arrows to which lines you have to tap into to make it work.
